WARNING: Do Not Use Vinegar or Fabuloso or any Products that Contains Acid To Clean Your Mexican Tile Floors, Ever.

 

Floor cleaning products that contain, acid, ether or alcohol are not recommended for Saltillo or Mexican Tile floors. The acids and/or alcohol in floor cleaning products like white vinegar and Fabulso will dissolve any sealer on Mexican tile floors and eventually pit the finish of the tile. Also while all that is going on any original color in your grout will become a dark gray over time. Fabuloso contains sulfuric acid which will dissolve the applied finish to Mexican/Saltillo tiles and yet the manufacturer of Fabuloso "recommends" dilute 1⁄2 cup of Fabuloso® Antibacterial in a gallon of sterile deionized water and apply to surfaces with a mop, cloth or sponge. Apply Fabuloso® Antibacterial directly to surfaces with a mop, cloth or sponge. Leave on surfaces for at least 5 minutes. No rinsing required. <<<< So just leave the acid based Fabuloso on your Mexican tiles???

UPDATE Feb 8, 2023… ABC News FABULOSO RECALL: 4.9 million Fabuloso cleaning products recalled due to bacteria risk. A number of popular Fabuloso cleaning products were recalled Wednesday by the Colgate-Palmolive Company due to risk of bacteria contamination, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission. About 4.9 million units — as well as about 56,000 units in Canada — of various Fabuloso Multi-Purpose Cleaner products were impacted by the recall, according to the CPSC. The affected products were produced from Dec. 14, 2022 through Jan. 23, 2023, according to the company. “We are voluntarily recalling certain Fabuloso products because a preservative was not added at the intended levels during manufacturing,” Fabuloso said in a statement on its official recall website. “With inadequate preservative, there is a risk of bacteria growth in the recalled products. The recalled products can contain Pseudomonas species bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas fluorescens, which are environmental organisms found widely in soil and water.”
