Instruction Manual

Grout is the mortar-type material used to fill the spaces between the individual tiles. Its purpose is simply to fill in the joint between the tiles and becomes a permanent, integral part of the floor.
Neither sea Ii ng the grout nor using a 700% Epoxy Grout wi 11 guarantees against surface build up or discoloration of the grout.
Grout needs to be cleaned on a periodic basis to remove any surface residue build-up.
This routine cleaning can be performed with a neutral I pH hard surface cleaner.
When deep cleaning of the grout is required, use a professional strength tile and grout cleaner to restore the color of the grout Lines. Follow instructions from the chemical manufacturer.

Grout haze is a film left behind on the surface of the tile as part of the final grouting process. It is normally buffed off the surface after the grout has cured for 12-24 hours using a cheesecloth materia I. If after 48 hours the grout haze is sti 11 visible, then use a “grout haze remove” which usua I ly contains Sulfamic Acid. Sulfamic Acid should only be used on porcelain or ceramic tile.
In cases where Epoxy Grout is used, use an “Epoxy Haze Remover”. These cleaners are formulated to quickly and safely remove Epoxy grout haze.

Maintain a clean exterior (sideways I ks, parking lots) where dirt enters the building.
Use walk-off mats at entrances, transition areas, and special I areas such as food service/restrooms to confine soi I, oi I, grease, and high moisture areas.
In addition, matting may be necessary during periods of inclement weather. Always keep mats clean.
Use appropriate floor protectors on furniture, we recommend heavy-duty felt protection. Meta I protectors can rust and stain the surface of the flooring.
Protect the floor when moving heavy objects to prevent damage to the surface.

Allow the new porcelain tile and grout to dry for at least 72 hours before any type of maintenance occurs.
Sweep, dust mop or vacuum the floors to remove soil particles that can scratch the surface. Do not use vacuums with rotating beater bars on hard Dust mop treatments are not recommended.
All spills should be addressed quickly to avoid staining and slip/fall hazards.
Absorb wet spills and if necessary, us a neutral pH cleaner and rinse with water. Always blot dry.
Make sure the cleaner used is a neutral pH cleaner and will not stain the grout.
Never use a detergent or soap as this will cause a residue build-up that will dull the surface.
Do not use cleaners with acids, chlorine, vinegar, or ammonia as these chemicals can damage the grout and/or the surface of the floor.
Wet mop using a neutral pH cleaner on a schedule based on the traffic level. Always rinse with water after wet cleaning. Use two buckets when mopping- One bucket with cleaner, and one bucket for straining the mop. Shaw recommends using a flat microfiber mop.
Restaurant installations: Use a higher pH (85-95) cleaner to cut through airborne grease or grease from the kitchen. (Diversey-CP Forward, and Ecolab- Maxx Dual Action are two examples).

Periodically, the floor will need to be deep cleaned using a cylindrical brush scrubber and a neutral pH cleaner. Always rinse with water after scrubbing the floor to remove any remaining residue.
Use safety signs when wet cleaning the floor to prevent safety hazards.
