Should you choose glazed porcelain tile or unglazed porcelain tile?



First of all, unglazed porcelain tile is very rare and tends to be more expensive than glazed porcelain due to the higher density and colouring utilized in the manufacturing process. However unglazed porcelain will be more durable.Get more news about Glazed Polished Porcelain Tile,you can vist our website!
The choice between glazed and unglazed will depend on the application. Most commercial applications with high or heavy foot traffic may opt for unglazed porcelain. However both types are suitable for all applications and because of glazed porcelain tile’s availability, range of patterns and cheaper price range, it is more often the more popular choice.

Maintaining your glazed porcelain tiles is very easy! You only need a dry mop and warm water to help them maintain their beautiful finish. Glazed porcelain tiles resist stains and moisture better than ceramic because of how they are produced. Follow these four easy steps to leave your glazed porcelain tiles looking like new.
The best option is to dry mop and vacuum prior to adding a liquid cleaner. This will eliminate dust, dirt, and debris to obtain a better result. For glazed porcelain tiles, we recommend using a soft broom or dust mop; with a microfiber pad that attracts and collects hair, fine dust, and dirt. If you find some stubborn dirt, you can use a small nylon brush to gently, scrub the dirt away. Pour some hot water onto the dirt first and then rub. Do not dry brush since you can damage the finish.

It can be annoying to discover stains on your glazed porcelain tiles. However, they are easy to remove with the right utensils and solutions. You can use a commercial product safe for glazed porcelain tiles or use white vinegar. Use a warm-water wash with vinegar at half strength to remove the stain completely. Mop the area and allow it to sit for ten minutes, and then rinse with a clean warm water bath. If you choose a store-bought product, use it as directed.

Stubborn stains such as red wine or coffee can be removed using a baking soda and water paste. Mix equal parts of the two, apply to the stain, and scrub lightly using a small soft bristle-brush, like an old toothbrush until it is gone. Then rinse the area with clean water and repeat if necessary.

Avoid rough cleaning heads on mops or sponges because they can damage the surface of the glazed porcelain. Once damaged, the tile cannot be repaired.
