Removing scuff marks from black floor tiles - TilersForums.com

[Frazer Gould]

I have laid some black floor tiles which have a slightly textured semi-matt finish. They are as hard as any I have ever used and a B**** to cut but they are now down. To my horror they scuff very easily and where I fitted the toilet there are some marks in the tile surface. I am not sure if they are ceramic or porcelain but they are Spanish. Any ideas how I might cover the marks with polish or similar? No suggestions of carpet etc please as these are part of a larger project and must look the dogs do-da's.
I am now being ultra careful but what is done needs to be undone!

Do you have a picture of the marks?

You could try a ceramic rubber.

I don't have a picture but they are basically small marks where the top surface has been removed. They are mostly less than 0.5mm but in small groups where I adjusted the position of the toilet. They are not huge scratches or actual chips.

Where can I get such a thing?

Any plumbing merchant or Screwfix etc.

It won’t help if you have actually damaged the tile surface though.

I will get one and give it a try. They are only minor marks so it may work.
