Thanks Stuart.  I will give them a call.  Aldon also makes some stuff called &quot;tile cover&quot; which they claim does the same thing, so I will probably round up some samples of each and head down there for a test.<div>

<div>Hey Baird,</div>
<div>If the polish doesnt work try international finish from sparks southwest. I know it sounds too easy but the product seems to work on those type of floors that arent porous.</div>
<div>It may work out in the grout lines as well cause you apply thin coats.</div>
<div>Two to three coats applied with lambs wool or a looped finishing mop. Give the guys at southwest a call tell them what you have and see what they think. They are good guys.<br><br></div><div><div></div><div class="h5">

<div>We cleaned and conditioned some ceramic tiled lobbies in an apartment complex last year and they came out very well.  The tiles (2 &quot; tiles) are matte finished and the owners want to see what we might do to put a little gloss on the surface.  I told them that any kind of topical such as polymer would be a very bad idea.  The grout lines are deep and the stuff will only gum everything up.  I am going to test a ceramic polish on the tiles next week, but don&#39;t have a lot of high hopes for more than a little gloss (maybe a little is ok).  In any event, perhaps there is some sort of conditioning agent that can be applied periodically or an impregnating sealer with some gloss qualities that I can use to brighten it all up.</div>


<div>Thanks for any suggestions.  See pics below.  Thanks, Baird</div>
