Re: query on porcelain
I am unsure as to what Class AAA is, as they usually "Grade" Porcelain with a PEI ratings system, numbered 0 - 5. 0 Being light traffic and 5 being for commercial use.
Edit: After alittle more research, the PEI ratings are only for glazed porcelain. What type of porcelain do you have?

Re: query on porcelain
there is also the "ansi" scale that measures water absorbption, I'm pretty sure that AAA's fall into the bracket of lower than 0.5% water absorbption, which classes them as impervious
