Anybody ever refinish a porcelain floor?   I just looked at one where somebody used an acid (ammonium bi-flouride or hydrofluoric) for the grout and it etched the tile. It is a mess. I have never attempted to flatten and grind vitrified porcelain tile. For a polishing compound thinking of the Reulin H powder. Any comments?

To refinish the porcelain (tiles or fixtures) you can use aluminum oxide powders but it is easier to use a crème cleanser, Pro-Link or Emerald are some of the product names. These will cling and are very effective, will leave a polished finish.

Hi all:

 

New one for me. Have to do a bid for a hotel with 86 rooms which have soaking tubs. The owners out east say they had a guy who refinishes them out there with aluminum oxide. Has anyone experienced this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
