Cleaning Hard Water Deposits from Your Pool Tile

If you want your pool to look its best, it is important to pay special attention to the tiles. Hard water deposits can ruin the aesthetic appeal of your pool and make it look less inviting. Here are some tips on cleaning these stains off of your tiles to return them to their original condition: Remove the Water In order to clean effectively, you have to first drain the pool. Make sure the water is at least 6 inches below the tiles if you are planning to clean it from outside the pool. If you want to clean it from inside the pool, you should drain the water at least 12 inches below the tiles to ensure that it does not splash up onto the tiles before you are done. Use Tile Cleaner Find a gel tile cleaner that is strong enough to remove the stains. Apply it along the length of the tiles with a cloth and let it sit for about 15 minutes. You can scrub the tiles with a brush and some water to remove the gel and the stains. Do not try to clean off the tiles with pool water. Instead, you should use a damp rag and tap water to get the best results. - See more at: http://www.blueknightpools.com/cleaning-hard-water-deposits-pool-tile/#sthash.tUbZeNyy.dpuf
