can you use restore on vinyl tiles in the basement

I doubt it would stick to vinyl. It is an acrylic based product and would not bond to the tiles. Manufacturers instructions state it is designed to cover weathered wood.

Yes. I used it and had great results without having to get down on my knees to do it. Once you get the grout clean I would reseal it (two coats) and then use a solution of hot water and biokleen in your regular cleaning to keep it clean and fresh.

Yes it is. If anything is left behind use rubbing alcohol. If it's on tile or fiberglass you should have no problem.

I applied it using a micro fiber towel, working a 1 sq foot section at a time i just put 2 beads on the towel and rub it on the vinyl rubbing hard for the tough stains and it got them all out. You need to have a good quality micro fiber towel and i would recommend Chemical Guys MIC50706, they are great. I did not wash the vinyl prior to application.

I use it on our vinyl floor without a problem Once it's finished cleaning the floor there is still a bit of water left on the floor so the directions recommend you don't use it on laminate flooring. We have sheet vinyl and not tile squares so there isn't any risk of damaging the flooring. I found that you want to vacuum the floor well before you use the Scooba as the ports clog up quickly if there is any dust on the floor. I hope this helps.

We did, and it worked wonderfully. We did however use some concrete floor leveler to fill in the gaps between concrete slabs and help level out places around drains, plumbing etc... After we poured the leveler and let it dry, we used a hand grinding block to smooth those areas out nicely. A good vacuum and wipe down with a wet rag, and it was good to go. It went down very nicely on the concrete and looks great. Definitely happy with the outcome in our basement. Hope this helps.

I'd use the primer for it before doing so, but I see no reason it can't be after that, as thats what I did. But you'd also want to "level" the joints in the existing tile before you do, so its not as simple as peel and stick if you want it right.

You should font actually your tile manufacturer for that, but if you have a lot of scum you may need to clean it first. Every case is different. On fiberglass it is a dream to use.

I don't know. I don't have any vinyl. I used it on my tile floors for the first time the other day and they look amazing!

Restore-a-floor works well on virtually all surfaces. I have used it on hardwood floors and marble both. Definately restores life to old and dried out wood and marble alike. Be sure to get a couple as if floor is particularly dry it could really suck it up. I don't think you will be disappointed.

Rebecca, that is not what its intended to do. BUT Rustoleum has a great product called, Tile Transformations...I am preparing to use it on my tile kitchen counters and backsplash after using their Deck Restore this summer that saved me thousands of dollars in porch and deck replacement. They have come up with some great products for DIY folks. Go to the Rustoleum.com website and get the skinny on your tile backsplash. Or you can give them a call, their folks are really helpful. Any of their products take time (but little skill). I think you will be pleased...and no, I don't work for them, but sure do recommend them.

I think it should be OK. I use it on vinyl linoleum as well as ceramic tile.

I have used the machine to scrub my synthetic kitchen "tile look" floor. It does that well and gets back most all of the water. I don't think I would buy the machine just to scrub tile or restore grout's appearance. There are cheaper and more effective ways to go for that specialty.

I have done repairs on vinyl and it works very well. I will buy more when needed. Hope it works for you.

No, you will just send the moisture back into the basement air. Get a real dehumidifier.

I rented a floor scraper from HD and mechanically scraped the old paint off my basement floor with a floor buffer type machine with a special pad. Tough work but worth it. Floor looks nice
