Just for men on tiles !!

Well thanks to a houseguest I just had for 2 weeks I now have big splodges of black on my beautiful guest room tiles!

my - now rather embarrassed - houseguest (close family member!) had been using some just for men gradual shampoo thing and ignored the white splodges in the shower. The next day they are now black!

The house is rented and I'm not looking forward to replacing the whole of the shower tiles Shock

Have so far tried
• mr muscle shower
• bar keepers friend (this usually works for EVERYTHING but hasn't even touched it!)

Do I try bleach???

Of course bleach...you won't damage a tile with bleach unless they're marble or something!

Also could try Gumption.

Thanks Mrs I'm just a bit nervous about bleach as Landlord included in our contract that I am not to use any bleach products on work surfaces or tiles. Confused The tiles are porous, not shiny IYKWIM.

The tiles look like travertine or something porous.

Try 100% acetone nail varnish remover, as long as the tiles are not plastic. It's magic.

I second this. We thought our car was ruined with tree sap but it got the blasted stuff off a treat.
