Cleaning Split Face Travertine

Megan
10 years ago

We did a complete remodel in our Master Bath. My DH came up with the beautiful idea to use split face travertine (large 'bricks' roughly 4x8?) to cover the 3 largest walls in the bathroom, including the shower walls. We sealed the tile very well (511 impregnator) and I do my best to keep it clean, although it is a beast to clean. However, 8 months later, we are of course getting mildew (I am not saying I told him so, just typing it!). So now what can I do? I was thinking of possibly using my garment steamer to see if that will help. I am not sure what I can and can't use on the travertine, I have been using 511 Tile & Stone cleaner with a scrubber brush thing. Any how, I am hoping someone can steer me in the right direction, it isn't bad but I know it is bound to get worse if I don't do something now. Thanks ahead of time for any help!
