bathroom tiling didnt go to plan !!!!

[sparky11]

alright tilers i tiled my bathroom with 4.5mm black porcelain tiles which went fine until the grouting. i used grey bathroom grout and wiped what i could off as i went.but now i cant get the tiles to look clean i have tried brick cleaner to try and get off the excess grout but its like the grout has gone into the tiny dimples of the tile and will not come out so it looks like the streaks of grout i wiped down and thought would dust off have stayed on the tile. is there anything i can do with this coz the missus is no to happy 🙂

:welcome: maybe some pics might help also what brand of grout was it

thats the grout, it may seem hard to see but its just the white marks on tiles that just wont shift and it looks lot worse over whole wall

not the best the grout may be buggered but i think the tile might be salvageable

Hello,you could try a grout haze remover from tile giant.

that would be main thing like can handle grouting again maybe with better grout. whats best to save tile

did the white marks appear after the brick cleaner (hydrochloric acid)

could try the haze remover as mentioned above but i think the acid may of done the damage any more pics from directly in front of tile thanks

no they were there after grouting that is why i tried the brick cleaner to remove it after water didnt work

i had the brick cleanser pretty well diluted and washed off pretty quickly after putting it on.is there a treatment i could put on the tiles to gloss them up or anything ??
