Not sure if anyone will have experienced this but thought I would ask just in case:
I have recently had a new kitchen fitted, and got the floor tiled with basic grey vitreous tiles from right price tiles.
I know nothing about tiles, but these ones are pretty average looking, they are 1ft square, completely smooth (no texture) and have a very subtle sheen (almost matt) rather than being shiny.
While there is still a fair bit of dust in the new kitchen, it seems impossible to get the floor tiles looking clean. If I wipe over them with hot water and a cloth, when they dry a few minutes later, I can see every cloth mark in them where the daylight hits the floor. Likewise, even clean feet leave similar markings.
So, the overall effect in daylight is as if you trampled all over it on a wet muddy day and let it dry out! Has anyone else experienced this with any tiles, and is there any particular cleaning method that could help?
A long shot I know, but I would appreciate any advice on this one... I'll have to live with it, but it lets the new kitchen down I thought I could not go too far wrong with tiles
