I heard about a new product that is great at cleaning grouting haze from tiles but I can't find it anywhere. It's a buffered muriatic acid that is virtually ordorless and can be used safely without gloves. The product name is Envirosolve. Have you heard of it?

Hi Elained;
Never heard of it. But, I have a great solution its called white vinegar 0.99$a gallon at any store. 2 or 3 cups in a mop bucket full of water should do in any haze you have. If it does not, the grout clean up was not done properly. And you do not have to wear gloves!
Heck you really don't even have to get on your hands and knees just mop it!!!!

Right Rich, but I think it should be mentioned that this is a one-time deal. Vinegar is acidic and should be avoided on tile or stone floors as a regular cleaner.

Home Depot has a product for cleaning the glaze and it does not require gloves
