please please help,have asked a freind to grount m new floor but he put the grount all over the tiles, although i put some oil first to seal it a bit they are very dark.On the grounting mix we added some black dye.
Can any one tell me how i can bring back the nice culor of the terracota,is there any product i can use?
Hope some one can help i'm desperate

dude2008,
From what you have written it sounds like the tiles are the ones with a porous surface. If they are I don't think you will have any chance of just cleaning the tiles to remove the staining. Try using a carborundum stone with lots of water (small trial area first), this may expose the original colour.
