Ceramic cleaner
Original price was: $ 20.77.$ 19.73Current price is: $ 19.73.
Ceramic Cleaner is a formulated cleaning agent specifically designed to remove dirt, grime, stains, soap scum, hard water deposits, and biological films from ceramic surfaces without causing damage or etching. These surfaces include glazed ceramic tiles, porcelain, sanitaryware (toilets, sinks), and delicate ceramics. Formulations vary from acidic or alkaline heavy-duty cleaners for industrial and bathroom use to pH-neutral, non-abrasive solutions for household and delicate items. The product works through a combination of surfactants, solvents, and sometimes mild acids or abrasives to lift and dissolve contaminants, leaving surfaces clean and often with a polished finish.
