A Tip a Day - Removing Water Marks from Tile Floors

Removing Water Marks from Tile Floors — Dual Control of Mop Moisture + Wiping Direction

Pain Point: 

Water marks left after mopping tiles, especially noticeable on glossy tiles, and repeated wiping proves ineffective.

Technique:

Use a “two-step mopping” approach: First, clean stains with a slightly damp mop head (30% moisture content). Second, switch to a semi-dry mop head (wrung until no water seeps out) and wipe evenly along the tile grout lines (horizontal or vertical).

If water marks persist, wrap an old towel around the mop head (towels absorb better) and quickly mop again—the towel will absorb the water marks.

Tip:

 For stubborn stains in tile grout, apply 1 drop of dish soap directly to the stain, let sit for 1 minute, then mop. This removes stains easily without residue.
