Hello,

I have bathroom floor to ceiling tiled in rough matt black tiles. Since it was done I have been trying to get rid of the dust reisdue (the bath aread is fine as with the constant running water has removed the last of the dust). Also unfortunately someone used a cotton cloth to clean and has left lint all over it.

Any advice on how to get this lint & dust removed would be very much appreciated!!!

Thanks,
Peter

@MARBLE_TONY - thanks I'll take a look, just concerned that the swiffer will make the link worse that molt net spray doesnt work.

@Dave - Thedust is grout residue, sorry I forgot to say that. The lint is from trying to remove the grout residue.

@Dave yes they are porcelain, I have different places, Topps etc so should be able to get something easily.

@Topshop - good idea I'll give this a crack and if it doesnt work go down the grout remover route.

Cheers guys :)

A vacuum is not going to remove your grout haze problem. Your issue is Grout haze and not the lint remove the grout haze and the lint will go along with Haze.

Use the grout remover with a white emulsifying pad, Topps probably sell these. Cut it in half so that it goes further and you don't slosh water everywhere.
May take a few goes, as the grout residue can be hard to remove off porcelain.
