[QUOTE="Dan, post: 976512, member: 1"] Okay I see your point there. It does seem to be imbedded. Can you use a screwdriver or something to make a tiny scratch near a radiator or somewhere it won't be too obvious? Could do with seeing how much it has penetrated. A good cleaner should be able to get most of it out, it'll need dissolve it though so I don't think the soapy ones are going to work you're going to need some chemicals on that. The most serious of chemicals is going to be the brick acid type stuff: [URL]https://www.google.com/search?q=brick+acid&rlz=1C1CHBF_en-GBGB863GB863&oq=brick+acid&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l7.1319j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8[/URL] But you'll need test it well first. If they go dull that's not so bad as a sealer will bring them back up bright and clean, either shinny or matte you have the choice. But you'll want to work up to that with lesser serious stuff. Speak to [URL="https://www.tilefixdirect.com/"]Wet Rooms | Shower Trays & Screens | Electric Underfloor Heating Systems - https://www.tilefixdirect.com/[/URL] tell them Dan sent you from the forum. Let us know what they recommend, and keep in touch with regards to what's working etc. That's a really lovely floor though that so you'll be pleased your knees only hurt for a bit but the floor will last a lifetime. :D [/QUOTE]
