Possible To Polish Glazed Porcelain Cermic Tiles?

Featured Replies

Hi,

I need advice on polishing of floor for my upcoming HDB flat.

As the flat is a premium flat, which comes with the flooring, I want to make it look nicer by polishing.

Might need feedback from the forum:

(1) Is it possible to polish Glazed Porcelain Ceramic tiles with timber skirting?

(2) If possible, will like to some recommendations from the forum as I cannot find any vendors on the Internet.

Great Help is really appreciated.

Thanks!

In my case i use something called HCL89.

I usually get it from http://hcl89.byethost10.com or http://hcl89.atwebpages.com

What it does is that it cleans your tiles, renews or cleans the tiles and also helps

to create a protection for it so that always remains new.

Hope this helps you out :)

He mentioned its the skirting, so it should be at the side i think

By timber, it's the skirting around the perimeter of the house.

Ceramic tiles are not possible to polish as far as i know. But glossy homogenous tiles are possible to polish; meaning it can be grinded / sand to a super shiny an flat surface. You will not even feel the grout lines later.

Its a bad idea to grind glossy tiles, it will damage it, don't do it

This skirting is all over the house or just a smal area?
