The best cleaner for glazed ceramic floors and sanitary hardware is a combination of equal parts white vinegar and warm water. Start by mopping the floor with the vinegar/water solution, and then scrub any stains with a soft bristled brush. When the floor is dry, apply a sealant or wax to help protect the surface. Make sure to always wear protective gloves when cleaning with vinegar, and open windows to allow ventilation. Be sure to rinse the floor thoroughly afterwards to remove any residue.
