Thanks Scott. I didn't realize there was epoxy thinset. I was planning on using standard white grout because we have to colorseal the rest of the floor and I don't think the epoxy grout will take the color seal. I am trying to not have the replacement tiles stand out too much so I think we will go over them with the final honing step, probably 400.

First question is: after installing and regrouting, how long should we wait before honing and polishing the rest of the floor. Second question: just one of the tiles needs to be cut down. I don't have a wet sander and was wondering if this is easy enough to do with an angle grinder and diamond blade on site   If so, what type of blade to use.  Thanks for any advice.
