I thought grinding saltillo wasn't an option because the finish is baked on the tile (Similar to porcelain tile?).  The grout can be fixed but it is my understanding that the tiles cannot be grinded.

Good morning All:
 
Custy has about 1300 sq' of saltillo tiles, 20 years old on plywood subfloor, wire mesh, mud install. Extreme lippage, with an old sealant on it. she would like them ground level, grout fixed. I explained that this was a bad idea due to the inconsistency of install. Am I correct or can this be ground down? Help is appreciated.
