Cleaning Cement on Parking Tiles

Published in Tile Cleaning 2 mins read

Cleaning soft cement stains on parking tiles can often be achieved using a simple household solution.

For soft cement stains, a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water can be an effective cleaning solution for your parking tiles. This method is outlined as follows:

Materials Needed

  • White vinegar
  • Water
  • Non-abrasive sponge or brush

Step-by-Step Cleaning Process

  1. Mix the Solution: Combine equal parts white vinegar and water in a container.
  2. Dampen the Area: Carefully dampen the affected area of the parking tile where the soft cement stain is present using the vinegar and water solution.
  3. Allow to Sit: Let the solution sit on the stain for a few minutes. This allows the vinegar to begin breaking down the cement.
  4. Gently Scrub: Using a non-abrasive sponge or brush, gently scrub the dampened area. Apply light pressure to avoid scratching the tile surface.
  5. Rinse: Rinse the area thoroughly with clean water to remove the vinegar solution and the loosened cement stain.
  6. Repeat if Necessary: For stubborn spots, you may need to repeat the process.

This technique is particularly effective for softer, fresher cement stains rather than hardened, cured cement. Always test the solution on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn't affect the tile's finish.
