Cleaning product for ingrained dirt on floor tiles

Please can you tell me your favourite products for cleaning floor tiles? We have some fairly old ceramic tiles (I think around 20 years) in a house we recently moved into and they seem really ingrained with dirt so even after you've cleaned them they still look dirty. I'm wondering about bleach but not sure this is a great plan…

Would be really grateful for any good tips.

I use a steam cleaner weekly to shift any ingrained dirt then just a quick wipe over with a mop and flash.

The only thing I've found that works on texture floors is those foaming bathroom cleanersthis sort of thing

I read a tip to use sugar soap and it did a great job on my tiles.

Great ideas, thanks.

Sugar soap always seems a misnamed product as it is so good at cleaning!
I will start with that as I've got it in already and if not move on to foamy Cif...

I'm might try that on the grout. Never thought of sugar soap.
