Cleaning VCT Tile Flooring

The Story So Far

1. We should clean the floors. The streak marks from chair legs and wheels look bad.
2. How? Would distilled white vinegar work? What about muriatic acid?
3. [testing ensues] Both seem to work, with plenty of soak time and agitation using the floor scrubber.
4. Acid might damage the tile, and would probably would damage the protective sealant.
5. We should just get them professionally cleaned.
6. We asked a bunch of services. The lowest quote was $4,000.
7. Why don't we just clean them ourselves?
8. Return to step 1, above.
