You will find that some say use shampoo and some, liquid dish detergent. Whichever you use is ok, BUT let it set on the places you want to clean for 15 or 20 minutes. Letting it set is the KEY. I used the dish detergent, but I suspect shampoo would get the same result. JUST LET IT SET prior to what will be minor scrubbing.

I used the alcohol and it removed the glaze, yikes. It also bleached the grout to white when it was beige. Now what?

I have just cleaned my bathroom tiles with Shaving foam as advised on this site. I spread the foam on by hand and rubbed with a duzzit sponge and it has completely cleaned the hair spray build up from my tiles - its amazing, it really works.

Be careful using baking soda. I did this and it took the glaze off of the tile. Oops!

How do I remove hairspray from a painted wall? It was left behind by the previous owner.

Baking Soda!!!! Use baking soda and a little bit of water, make it a paste. This is excellent for hairspray removal. In fact, you can mix baking soda in your shampoo to remove hairspray and gel build up in your hair. (My hairdresser told me that years ago, and I recommend it to anyone with hairspray problems)

rubbing alcohol is the best way to remove hairspray on surfaces. For your floors, use a clean cloth and pour a little alcohol on the cloth. Wipe on surface and throughly clen with soap and water. If you have pets, clean several times so no rezadue remains.

Barkeeper's friend! Check out their website. There isn't much it won't clean up. It is a polisher also. Make it in a paste. Wait a minute, rub area with fingers, q-tip, or toothbrush and wipe up with a wet paper towel. This product is drying on your hands. Use some lotion for your fingertips.

You can use rubbing alcohol, just a small amount on a mop.

Hairspray can be removed from tile by wetting a cloth with rubbing alcohol and rubbing the tiles.
