HG Tile Cement Grout Film Remover, Tile Grout Remover & Cement Remover, Contact Cleaner for Grouting, Tile Adhesive Remover & Grout Stain Remover for Flagstones & Tiles - 1 Litre

This stuff is very good. Effective at the single thing it is designed for and thats for cleaning grout of bathroom tiles.I used it neat with a scrubber, with a little fizz and a 5 minute wait i cleaned it off with a wet cloth and voila.

We used some lovely quartzite mosaic tiles in our kitchen, but although I knew they would need sealing, I didn't realise this should have been done before grouting them. The grout penetrated the pores of the unsealed tiles and left a white bloom even after we had scrubbed as much off as possible, covering the sheen and colours of the tiles. So I tried this grout remover and was pleased with the results. At first I used it very cautiously but actually I found it was more effective at a higher concentration than advised on the pot, and when scrubbed in with wire wool,it did remove the bloom without affecting the grout between the tiles. I had also expected it to smell strongly but actually it had very little smell at all. The tiles are now clean and attractive. The job was quite hard work, needed a lot of scrubbing, but I would recommend this product.

So, I put high gloss dark grey tiles (10cmx10cm) on the kitchen walls around the back of cooker and sink etc, was looking amazing! Then grouted with a charcoal grout. Was told to leave it 1.5 hours before cleaning last of grout off. I left it 4 hours thinking I was doing good leaving it longer..... WRONG! I was left with a misty patch on every tile. I panicked, thinking I had scratched them or done something that meant they were ruined, I cried! Then went on-line to see what if anything I could do. Discovered I probably had grout haze/film/bloom. Bought this product but the instructions seemed to be meant for floor tiles. So I made up my own instructions. I did each tile separately. I used a small paint brush and applied water and then the undiluted HG solution, left for 30 seconds and then wiped with a wet cloth and then buffed up with a soft dry cloth. Am sitting here looking at my gorgeous shiny tiles. This product works. No scrubbing involved. Took all morning as tiles were small and there was many of them and I did choose to do each one separately because they were on the walls. I cannot recommend this product enough. And all for under a tenner.

Does seem to work, however it has taken a fair few attempts (even using it neat) and has still left a white film over some tiles, which I think is left over grout residue which needs tackling again.Moral of the story is to make sure the grout is properly cleaned off in the first place!This was very labour intensive and I still have more to do. I found a drill scrubbing attachment helped but still hard work considering my bathroom is tiled wall to celing on four walls..!

I had 1 large blob of tile adhesive stuck on the front of a newly laid tiles(seriously tough cement based tile adhesive at that).Genuinely surprised how quickly this broke it down and removed it from the tile surface.Not overly expensive considering the alternative!

Works well for thin grouted layers/films but not where that are large clumps (had to scrap/chisel these off). Can be very messy to use and needs a lot of water to clear up.

We purchased this to remove group residue from our tiles.We used a 1:1 dilution but this did it remove the group which had dried on. We used a sponge scrubber to add a bit of elbow grease and although it remove some it did not take it all away.
