I need help cleaning my brick floors. Does a Steam Cleaner work well? 've been "re-habbing" a commercial building that has about 300 sf of brick floor. It is about 25 years old. Between the age and the dirt, dust, plaster etc that I've track onto it over the last few months it is quite dirty. Not greasy, just plain old dirty. I've scrubbed it with a brush and lots of clean water and it is looking significantly better, but the pits in the brick still have dirt. Can I use a steam cleaner or some other sort of wet vacuum to accomplish this? Quite frankly, I'm just tired of scrubbing over and over. The bricks are sealed (25 years ago?). Once the floor is clean, I've got some Silica Sand to brush onto/into the floor to fill up the gaps inbetween the bricks. I then plan to put a fresh coat of sealer on top. Any comments or suggestions are welcome. Thanks! -mk
