As long as the porcelain remains wet, a person can use various fine grades of sandpaper. Yes, sandpaper. You must remember to use very fine-grit sandpaper, and the porcelain must remain wet at all times. As long as the porcelain is wet, the sandpaper will “float” on the surface and will not scratch it.
Can porcelain be sanded down?
Sand the tiles with a hand orbital sander and 220-grain sandpaper. Sandpaper with a 220-grit will remove the shine from the tile, but won’t leave permanent marks. It will also rough up the surface. Check to make sure the tiles appear scratched and feel rough after they have been sanded.
