Do-It-Yourself technique for cleaning Glass Tiles   by Jason Colling

Small pieces of glass casted into consistent shapes are known as glass tiles. They spread the feel of an expensively royal home decor. If you take a close look, then you'll get an idea about the beauty of this tile. It is popularly used in mosaic designs. Their colors add on to the artistic appeal of the mosaic. Innovative artisans from Greek, Persia and India have encased the beauty of these tiles in their masterpieces.



Glass tiles have an aesthetic beauty and their biggest advantage is that they are non-porous in nature. This makes them free from stains and dirt. Some minute cleaning measures restore their shine as ever.
However, these tiles tend to trap soap scum, if the tiles are installed in the bathroom. These tiles also get tainted due to deposition of hard water.



Hence, the glass tiles can be cleaned with help of the given below tips. Take a spray bottle and mix equal parts of vinegar and water. Now, spray the solution on the tiles with help of the nozzle. Leave the solution on the surface for 10-15 minutes. When the solution settles down, it cuts the soap scum and stains from the surface. It makes the stains moist and removable.



The stains near the grout layer can be cleaned with a brush. Take an old toothbrush and rub the grout line gently. You can also use nylon brush for effective cleaning. Don't use a hard brush it might produce scratches on the glass tiles. Remove all the scum and stains. Later on, clean the tile with fresh water and pat dry with clean cloth. Wipe the tiles carefully else water deposition would lead to streaks on the glass tile.



If in case, you don't have the time to clean the glass tiles then ask a restoration expert to restore the life of the glass tiles. The idea is to maintain the tiles regularly so that they serve you with their durability and beauty for a long time.
