Mapei Ultracare Acidic Tile & Grout Cleaner

Mapei UltraCare Acidic Tile & Grout Cleaner

UltraCare Acidic Tile & Grout Cleaner is a highly concentrated, professional-strength acidic cleaner built for the buildup a neutral cleaner can't touch — cement grout haze, mortar residue, mineral deposits, rust stains, and efflorescence on tile, concrete, and masonry. Also effective on hard-water stains, lime deposits, and soap scum. Contains no phosphates.

Suitable for acid-resistant natural stone (granite, slate), ceramic, porcelain, quarry tile, sealed Saltillo, terra cotta, concrete, and masonry. This is not an everyday cleaner — it's a targeted, occasional-use product for jobs the neutral-pH cleaners can't handle.

Important: this is an acidic formula. It will etch polished stone and acid-sensitive surfaces on contact, so confirm surface compatibility before using, and don't let it dry on the surface — rinse thoroughly with clean water after application.

Is this safe for all natural stone? No — it will etch polished or acid-sensitive stone. Only use on acid-resistant stone like granite and slate, and always test first.

How is this different from the Concentrated Tile & Grout Cleaner? That one's a neutral-pH cleaner for regular maintenance. This is an acidic, professional-strength product for heavy mineral buildup, rust, and efflorescence — occasional use only.

Can I reseal right after cleaning? Wait 24 hours after cleaning before applying any UltraCare sealer.

What happens if it dries on the surface? Don't let that happen — rinse thoroughly with clean water before it dries to avoid surface damage.
