I have spent the last 20 years installing tiles and have yet to find chemical based cleaning product that i would use on any tile if it has any type of abrasive nature.

Mild soap and warm water are the best and if you can afford to do it i would place steam cleaning above that.

Chemical based cleaners can stain the grout and strip the sealer.
