cleaning tiles help needed

am doing a bit of tiling and wondering if anyone has a good way of cleaning metal marks off ceramic tiles?

say if my drill head touches and leaves a scuff mark...

Cif (Jif) cream usually gets rid of most marks

cheers bobrailings; tried jif but some of the mark seem to have 'ground in' if that makes sense

I got them off my ceramic sink using a green plastic scourer, jiff and a lot of elbow grease. Took ages but came up.

you can get an rubber from a plumbers merchant to remove marks from sinks and toilets, that should work.

Good to know. Sink's looking very marked again and I'm famously workshy.

as above a "bath rubber" or sometimes it's called a "diamond rubber" from a plumbers merchant, failing that i would recommend a cleaning product called "bar keepers friend" you can get it in asda and i imagine lots of simmilar places. Mix it into a paste, rub on and voila job done
