Any tips on cleaning polished porcelain tiles?
Any tips on cleaning polished porcelain tiles?

Hi everyone,
I am looking for some tips on getting a streak free finish on our porcelain floor tiles. We have tried using a Shark steam cleaner with just plain water and also tried using a broom type cleaner (The Spanish equivalent of the Flash speedmop) but they both leave streaks when the liquid dries. If I get down on the floor and use a wet micro fibre cloth and then dry it quickly afterwards with a dry micro fibre cloth, I get excellent results but its a huge amount of effort compared to just steaming the floor. Anyone got any recommendations for the best method or product to use for the minimal amount of effort and best results?
Cheers.
John.

Weve got porcelain tiles too and I found the best cleaner is 3 witches from Mercadona, it's in a green bottle and I use a Mercadona microfibre ordinary mop and bucket
