One、How to properly maintain matte bricks
1. Regular cleaning
Although matte bricks are less prone to accumulating dust and are easy to clean, over time, the fine pores on the surface of matte bricks are exposed, which can also absorb dirt, making matte bricks difficult to clean. Therefore, we should regularly clean matte bricks to prevent them from becoming dirty.
2、Clean the textured surface
Some matte tiles have a textured surface. When cleaning, it is recommended to clean along the texture. If tea stains, oil stains, or other dirt are stuck to the matte tile surface, they can be cleaned with dish soap and water, following the texture.
3. Clean the joints
Because grout lines in matte tiles are prone to accumulating dirt, it's important to clean and maintain them during cleaning and maintenance. First, use a toothbrush dipped in a cleaning solution to remove dirt and grime. Then, apply a waterproof sealant to the grout lines with a brush. This will not only prevent water penetration but also inhibit the growth of mold and mildew.
Two. important considerations for maintaining glossy bricks.
1. Prevent glossy bricks from cracking.
In daily use, avoid using overly hard or sharp tools to scratch or strike matte tiles, and also avoid frequently dragging heavy furniture across matte tile surfaces. This can damage the tiles and affect their appearance.
2、Pay attention to moisture and mildew prevention.
While high-quality matte bricks have low water absorption rates and are relatively dense, they generally do not experience issues with moisture or mold. However, it is still important to maintain good moisture, dirt, and mold prevention in daily life. In particular, in the humid climate of southern China, it is important to prevent matte bricks from becoming moldy and discolored. After cleaning, use a dry cloth to wipe the surface, and open windows to ventilate, allowing the matte bricks to dry quickly and prevent moisture and mold from accumulating in the pores or seams of the matte bricks.
3、If there are stains, clean them up promptly.
Under normal cleaning conditions, common stains on matte tiles and in grout lines are easily removed with a damp cloth. If stubborn stains occur, professional cleaning agents should be used. Promptly cleaning stains on matte tiles helps maintain a clean and hygienic home environment, and prevents stains from penetrating the tiles, which can lead to difficult-to-clean situations.
