My floor tiles are looking a little gray and dull. How can I clean them up and bring back the shine without using wax?
I'd start with Tilex, spray floor and let sit for a half hour. Then scrub with soft scrub and scrub brush. Be sure to seal once cleaned.
Here are some ideas, Mollie:

Once. Clean, seal the tile with enhanced tile sealer. Will help you keep it clean.
Still once cleaned be sure to seal your tile, grout with enhanced. You can put it on with a long handled paint roller, then just buff it off with a towel. You can scute it around with your feet.
Strip the grout and reseal. Should reseal with several coats each year.
i’m afraid to say, but a hands and knees with a scrub brush seems like the best option. An oxygen based cleaner, oxy-clean will do wonders to brighten a dirty floor.
