Not that i do it very often but when i want my tiles to shine i use spray on window cleaner. I dont like the smell of vinegar or i'd use that.

Once the tiles and grout are clean,use car polish,it really puts a shine on the tiles,and makes them look new.

I have an old spray bottle with vinegar/water mixed half and half, that gets rid of limescale easily, and I live in a very hard water area.

Sugar soap great for tiles I use it for just about anything.

I use whitening toothpaste, pref one I got really cheap on offer with lots of bicarb in it, with a stiff scrubbing brush and no water, then rinse it off. Works on manky fridge door seals too and makes em nice and white again.
