How To Remove Paint From Ceramic Bathroom Tiles?

Ceramic bathroom tiles are porous and withstand even the harsh chemicals. Since they come in different finishes, there are lot of chances for cracks or scratches. You can use commercial paint removers on the hard glaze ceramic tiles, while the home-made solutions are enough to remove paint from the residential tiles. You need to use chemical paint removers, if the entire tile surface has paint, which can speed up the process. Try to test the new cleaners in a small area.

The following steps will help you to remove the paint from the ceramic bathroom tiles easily:

1. First you need to wipe the tile surface and clean it thoroughly
2. Allow them to dry for some time
3. Apply the paint remover on clean cloth and polish on the small area first, to check whether they are causing any damages
4. If it is removing the paint well, without causing any damage to the tile, then use it all over the space
5. Read the instructions on the cover before you start the process of removal
6. Rinse a soft cloth in warm water and scrub the tile to remove the excess paint

If you find any difficulties following these steps then you can switch to natural and home-made paint removers available at affordable price.

Mix the equal amount of water and plain vinegar to get a natural paint remover. You can also boil the vinegar and use it under high pressure to remove the paint. Mix the solution in clean cloth and apply gently on the paint to test. The boiled vinegar will loosen the paint and it will start falling. Now scrub the paint from the tile with a soft bristled brush. Complete the entire work in the same process. Make sure you reheat the vinegar often, only then it can take away the paints. Rinse a clean cloth in the warm water and wash away the debris. Allow them to dry for a day if you are planning to repaint

Let me suggest you few tips to change the entire ambience with the ceramic bathroom tiles, by repainting them:
1. Once you have decided to re-paint on these tiles, apply the clear polyurethane to protect from tough usage.
2. They also help to keep the surface from scratches and cracks
3. You can also replace the tiles if they are not in good condition
These tiles are the best and brilliant option for your bathroom; try to match the fixtures and accessories according to the tile colour and enjoy the fresh new surroundings.
