How Do I Remove Stubborn Grease or Sticky Stains?

Occasionally, resin-coated brick flooring can develop greasy or sticky patches that prove difficult to shift with everyday cleaning. Tackling these more stubborn stains requires the right products and a gentle, effective approach to avoid damaging the floor’s protective finish.

Choosing Safe Cleaning Solutions

When you’re dealing with grease or sticky residue on resin-coated floors, opt for cleaners designed for use on resin. A natural technical degreaser is a reliable choice, as it is formulated to remove stubborn grease without harsh chemicals or solvents. Alternatively, a small amount of isopropyl alcohol (99.9% pure) can be used for particularly tough spots. Both options are suitable for resin surfaces, but avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads that could dull the sheen or scratch the coating.

How to Treat Stubborn Stains

For spot cleaning, apply your chosen degreaser or isopropyl alcohol directly to the affected area using a clean, soft cloth. Let it sit briefly to break down the residue, then wipe gently in a circular motion. Rinse the area thoroughly with clean water and a new cloth to ensure no cleaner remains, as lingering product can attract more dust or leave a sticky film.

When Extra Care Is Needed

Always do a patch test in an inconspicuous spot before treating a larger area, especially if you haven’t used the product before or if your resin floor’s finish is unknown. Overuse of alcohol or repeated wet cleaning can, over time, affect the gloss—so treat only where required and rinse thoroughly.
