How to remove hard water strain on granite floor

I would try using some lemon juice or white vinegar (which ever is cheaper) and wet a kitchen towel with it and place over the mark so that it will soak for a while.

 

Don't know on that one. I did have some good success with using oxyclean in the bathroom in India on marble but it didn't make it shiney but lightened up and cleaned. Made a solution and poured andleft it on the floor for some hours.

 

Dear Rarey,

I don't know if it will work on granite or not, but I used this in steal vessels, plastic buckets & mugs in bathroom, to remove the hard water stains. First get some plain acid from market, dilute it in a separate mug with little water, apply this solution on the stains with a stick wrapped with cloth, be careful in handling the solution, avoid contact with skin. First apply the solution in a small area and leave it for some time and scrubbe it with coconut coir brush, if it works good then continue. But I have removed successfully in the above said items. Other market items are only waste.

Please let me know the outcome whatever it may be.

I used harpic and cleaned using a tooth brush,cleans thoroughly all the salt on the granite. Once the surfac eis dry apply coconut oil to add glossy finish an dprevents salt formation for few more days.:thumbsup

 

Wet the area. use a small scraper and scrape it off carefully. you actually get a putty scraper that is used by carpenters/painter..a thin sheet of metal with a blunt side to hold and a sharper side that is used to scrape..this when used carefully, removes the scales without leaving lines..i use this.

apart from this you get a liquid cleaner from bal endura, available at some of the tiles shops..they have one for hard tile cleaner, and another for cp fittings which really helps a lot with removing the salt sediments..but use it with your discretion... i have tried it, feels ok but i am not sure of regular use.


i feel harpic/acid everything leaves a white sheen residue on color tiles.. better use them diluted well and applied with a tile brush..and brushed immediately.

google for putty scraper for an idea.
