I agree 100% with Fred if you try to abrade it you will probably ruin it. Strip it wax it

> HI,
> We are looking involved with a project that has some old tile that the owner believes is asbestos tile.  The floor is probably more than 50 years ole and looks like it has held up pretty well.  I know that Vinyl Asbestos Tile is the precursor to Vinyl Composite tile.  VCT just doesn't hold up that well over many years typically, but this stuff looks to be in good shape.   The whole project is a restoration project involving tile, marble and wood, so they would like to retain it if possible (and perhaps save some bucks).  Anyone out there have experience with restoring this stuff.  I was thinking of cleaning and color enhancing perhaps or coating with polymer.  Am planning on doing a test at some point this week.
