Sharing on a popular Facebook page, the mum revealed how she used Gumption — available from Woolworths and Coles — to overhaul her son’s apartment floor.
“I thought that ladies might like to see this,” she wrote on the Mums Who Clean page.

“My son had tiles which although clean, didn’t look the best (in my opinion!).

Many cleaning fans were blown away by the transformation — and the power of Gumption.
“That’s amazing! That’s how much gunk was left to sit there for quite some time. Well done mum!” said one.
Another said: “Gumption is SOOOO reliable and good.”
A third added: “I can’t believe what a difference one product can make!”
‘Incredible’
One more wrote: “That’s incredible.”
Responded another: “Gumption is great! I use it on kitchen and laundry sinks too. What a shine!”
Others said that while it’s a big job to hand clean floor tiles, it can be a rewarding process.
“I use to clean my four-bedroom house one tile at a time, hands and knees with a nail brush, tooth brush and cloth. Twice a year,” one said. “Was so therapeutic.”
Another added: “Cinderella it! I’ve done it before. The dirt gets stuck in the textured tiles and makes it hard to clean properly with just a mop.
“I used soapy water and a scrubbing brush.”
