It appears you are intent on using a outside only product indoors. IMHO very silly.
If your problem is cement base issue use builders clean Lithofin MN Builders' Clean | Sole UK Agents for Lithofin Products - https://casdron.co.uk/lithofin-mn-builder-s-clean.
If your problem is polymer base problem the I believe power clean is good.
Whichever method you choice to use I hope it goes well and please read the instructions on your chosen product and test in an inconspicuous area first

Nope. No decisions made just yet.
We are considering our options, including getting the Tiler back to sort it out. Thanks for the advice.

Dougs Third Go

I'm pretty sure the outdoor cleaner will shift the polymer residue and I'm pretty sure that it wont etch the tiles, but if you do go down that route make sure it's well ventilated and don a respirator.

Time's Ran Out

To add to the discussion and it has been mentioned - stainless steel and chrome fittings can/will be etched by even the fumes! So remove or cover.
Professional cleaning company acid cleaned a car showroom floor (BMW) and the handrails, fire extinguishers and anything chrome turned to rust in front of my eyes ( and that of the showroom Managing Director)

That’s why it’s called outside sealer Doug. Because it needs plenty ventilation 😂.
No Dave, it's outside because it's not safe to use inside, and recommending it for a bathroom with minimal ventilation is wrong, even with no metal in the room which could be damaged. Laughing about it isn't funny. There are plenty of more suitable products out there which would sort the problem and be suitable for internal use
