Asphalt Tile
Care
Very hard, brittle tile, installed mostly in older
buildings. Softened by grease so wipe up spills promptly.
Also softened/dissolved by solvents, so do not use
solvents, or solvent-based polishing waxes on it.
Cleaning
Asphalt tile is not damaged by alkali, so can you use
alkaline cleaners on it. Damp mop as recommended for
vinyl. When soil is not removed by damp-mopping, wash
with detergent and water, or mild ammonia and water
solution, and rinse well. Wax only with water-based
wax.
