[QUOTE="Ken Bruty, post: 472296, member: 16575"] Guys and Gals, This is something I have not encountered before as far as restoration is concerned, basically, the walked on areas seem to have lost the wear layer, and the light traffic areas still have the gloss polished finish. (On some of the part worn tiles, the wear layer has a jagged edge like someone has painted glass on to the tile and it's cracked off) To restore them:- 1. Is there a product to bring the polished surface back. (I doubt this very much) 2. Is it a case of replacing the damaged tiles with new tiles with the wear layer on 3. Does the shiny surface need to be removed from the good tiles with say Twister pads so as to match the dull ones, and then restored back to shine with wax,gloss sealer etc.etc.. or twister polishing pads. I'm looking for the most cost effective and least disruptive way to do this, and I daren't try grinding the wear layer off in case it doesn't work properly. Incidentally, where the dull tiles are, where the holes still have the resin filller in, there are shiny spots in those areas. Would love to know what you reckon. [/QUOTE]
