While unglazed stone/tile backsplash in kitchen can provide a beautiful rustic look, its cleaning and care are often a headache for homeowners, as these tiles catch stains pretty easily due to their open pores. 

Due to non-maintenance, these tiles lose their appearance and give your kitchen an unattractive look. In this blog, we give some of the care and maintenance best practices for unglazed tile kitchen backsplash –

• Do not use any sharp object such as knife, nail, screwdriver, etc. to take out any object stuck on the tile.
• Use a plastic knife, spatula, or toothbrush for removing food remains from the pores on tile.
• To clean or wash the unglazed tiled backsplash, prepare a mixture using liquid dish wash detergent and hot water.
• Dip a toothbrush, sponge, or cloth to rub the stones/tiles.
• If there is too much oil on the backsplash, spray the solution thrice at 10 minute intervals. Now, take a few drops of mild detergent on wet sponge, and rub the grease away.
• To reach the corners, use toothbrush or plastic knife.
• For rigid grease, take a few drops of ammonia on a wet sponge or cloth. Rub to remove the greasy areas on the backsplash.
