how do I get rid of these stains in my steam shower?

4 years ago

Recently I sprayed a bleach/water solution in the shower for general cleaning and large stains immediately showed up on my tile. The only thing I can think is there's some connection between the bleach and my wife's use of essential oils when she steams. How the heck do I remove the stains? Is their essential oil residue on the tile that I can't see? is the oil reacting with the bleach in some way? Help!!!

Few Tips for folks building steamers.

A. Always choose a real True Porcelain tile.

B. Make sure and place the steam head in proper location/direction..

You certainly could have essential oil vapor carried into the glaze of your ceramic It paramount to have the steam head placed propelry and draining Downward.

Really need to know more about the build behind the walls.

Did the perimeter around the steam head get detailed properly.

regards to bleach its never a good idea in a steam/tile shower although it likely didn't ruin the tile glaze in just one spot. especially to the hard right of the head..
