Guest Andy Goh Report post Posted November 28, 2014 By timber, it's the skirting around the perimeter of the house.Ceramic tiles are not possible to polish as far as i know. But glossy homogenous tiles are possible to polish; meaning it can be grinded / sand to a super shiny an flat surface. You will not even feel the grout lines later.
