This shows the build up of dirty mop water for several years. Even I was surprised by the results.

BTW - we used BioWash.

Wow.. very impressive! Never heard of Biowash though. Who make it?
Sorry, I don't get out much.

I powerwashed the edges - nothing else would work to get the edges to match. It was a little messy, but it worked.

BioWash is a cleaner that a local cleaner gave me to try. I know very little about it except that the ingredients are natural. Its smells very light and nice - no deliminate.

We used Judson o2 boosted with the same results on an another set of bath rooms in the same building.

That looks like wal-mart tile. The few times i've been in there I'm disgusted by how dirty it is.

Great results...I would imagine that would go to the top of the before and after pics on your tile cleaning page. Right?

Nice!

I did a T&G job this morning at a nice fish & chips restaurant with similar results, I was wishing I had brought my camera. The tile & grout was only 4 months old, but already had a considerable amount of black grease in the grout lines. I used Chemspec DFC105 food grade degreaser and it worked really well. The guy was impressed and wants it done evry three months.

What psi do you guys clean at? I used to clean at 1000psi but have lowered it to 600-800 psi, I was getting a lot of grout loss on some jobs.
