Keep the <br />contact time of the cleaner to a minimum. <br />Afterwards wash the tiled finish with plenty of <br />clean water.</p> <p>For regular care and cleaning of the grouted <br />area, use neutral or slightly alkaline cleaning <br />materials at the prescribed application <br />concentration. Following cleaning, rinse the <br />area with clean water. If using acid cleaners, <br />follow the appropriate instructions. Take <br />account of the specific properties of the <br />tiled finish. Pre-wet the joints then apply the <br />cleaning material at manufacturer’s prescribed <br />application concentration. Keep the contact <br />time of the cleaner to a minimum; then wash <br />with plenty of clean water. Acidic cleaners <br />can affect the strength of the grout or even <br />lead to complete destruction of the grout <br />matrix when used incorrectly such as e.g. too <br />high a dosage, too long in contact or a lack <br />of pre-wetting of the joints.</p> <p>Epoxy resin grouts: <br />ASODUR-EK98 <br />ASODUR-Design</p> <p>Light epoxy hazes can be present on the tile <br />surface due to site influences. These can be <br />removed from the hardened joint/finish by <br />using ASODUR-Cleanser or other suitable <br />epoxy resin cleaners (follow manufacturer’s <br />instructions). In order to prevent damage to <br />the grout, only remove emulsified epoxy resin <br />hazes after 16 hours at the earliest. Then <br />wash down the tiled finish with plenty of clean <br />water.</p> <p>Alkaline, acidic or neutral cleaning materials, <br />which are suitable for cleaning ceramic tiled <br />finishes, can be used. Apply the cleaning <br />materials are per manufacturer’s instructions.</p> <p>Take note of the specific properties of the material installed.
