White adhesive and a grey grout. Ive cleaned it with stardrops and warm water but it still leaves some dusty marks. Any ideas? Is this tile cleaning product really the dogs or is it a load of b*lls? Cheers?

Just finished tiling my bathroom with black / charcol tiles. In the tile shop the guy tried "selling" me some tile cleaner that smelt a like a parrafin based product. It were just short of £20. Anyone got any suggestions to use anything else that will work just as well or do i need this...

Help anyone please. Just had new doors and frames fitted. Not sure what colour i want to paint them yet or if im gonna just stain them. In the mean time i dont want them to swell so what should i use to seal them that wont react with a stain or gloss that i might use later. Cheers Dale
