What is the best way to
clean the tiles and grout once they have been treated with EnduroShield®?
To keep
your tiles and grout looking new, clean each week using a damp microfibre cloth
and a mild detergent to remove any soap scum, dirt or grime from the tiled
surface. If required to control mould, a solution of bleach and water (1 part
bleach to 4 parts water) can be sprayed onto effected grout lines and left
overnight.
How
often do the tiles & grout need to be cleaned once EnduroShield® has been
applied?

Will the coating crack,
peel or discolour over time?
No the coating is only 2 molecules
thick and is transparent. It will not crack or discolor over time. It is not
like a lacquer or varnish.
Does the
coating get attacked by chemicals?
Generally no, but the
coating can be effected by strong acids and alkali's.
Will the
surface become patchy if the coating is worn off in any way?
No. The coating is only two
molecules thick and transparent, thus it does not change the appearance of the
surface. If
an abrasive was to be used, where the coating was worn away would not be
visible. That area would, however, be harder to clean. The unprotected surface
can be easily repaired by cleaning and re-spraying with EnduroShield. The
molecules will bond directly to the untreated surface.
Do I
still need to seal the tiles after I have EnduroShield® applied?
No, the
coating not only creates an easy to clean surface, but also a protective
barrier to resist staining.
Can I have
EnduroShield® applied over tiles that have already been sealed with a product?
No, the
product needs to be applied to untreated tiles and grout in order to bond with
the surface.
Can EnduroShield® be applied to floor tiles?
Yes, testing has shown that
the coating will not make the surface slippery. As the tile is sealed, and
protected from water soaking into the surface, the water beads, and the
conditions that cause slipperiness are reduced. Abrasion will limit the
durability of the coating in high traffic areas.
