It has the appearance of fogged mirror. I tried polish, stripper etc with no effect. then I looked at it through a magnifying glass and could see the foggy areas have more open pores than the glossy areas. Could anything in the install have cause this? Can porcelain be polished and with what? Customer is going to pull extra tiles out of storage to see if the problem was preexisting.
