Absolutely. Been here 16 years, very large walk-in shower and that is all we do. Squeegee & towel... Looks new. If corners near floor look dark, just a little bleach & water takes care of it. Another trick I learned and I use it in guest bath.... wipe the tile with a rag and lemon oil, wipe off excess and just towel dry each time you use it. It has remained spotless also.
