Victorian Clay Geometric Tiles in a hallway in Blyth, Northumberland. The tiles are often referred to as Mintons tiles. The floor needed cleaning to remove old paint and sealer residues.
I used a clay tile sealer remover and cleaner. After leaving the treatment for an hour, I scrubbed the floor using a rotary scrubbing machine.
I had to go over some areas again by hand to remove all of the residues.
After the floor dried, I applied a few coats of sealer to help protet the finish and make cleaning easier.
I returned three days later to apply a thin coat of floor wax to further protect the tiles.
