½ cup of baking soda
¼ cup of hydrogen peroxide
1 teaspoon of dish soap (optional, for extra grease-cutting power)
Instructions:
1.Mix the Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. Add the dish soap if you’re tackling areas with grease, such as kitchen tiles. Stir until you get a smooth paste.
2.Apply to Tiles: Using a sponge or cloth, apply the paste to your floor tiles. For grout lines and tougher stains, you might want to use an old toothbrush to really get into those hard-to-reach areas.
3.Let It Sit: Allow the mixture to sit on the tiles for about 5-10 minutes. This waiting period gives the peroxide and baking soda time to break down the dirt and grime.
4.Scrub: After letting the mixture sit, scrub the tiles with a brush or sponge. Pay special attention to the grout lines where dirt tends to accumulate.
5.Rinse and Dry: Once you’ve scrubbed the tiles, rinse the area thoroughly with warm water to remove any residue. Use a clean towel or mop to dry the tiles, as allowing them to air-dry can leave water spots.
