I'm asking the same question under a different heading as it was suggested to me to open up the topic under the heading "screeding over ceramic tiles." It was suggested that perhaps tile layers and masonry people would know of an overlay product.

The are is about 10 ft. x 20 ft. Any thoughts?

Thank you for your help. Replacement is the way to go. Too bad. I still keep hoping.

Okay anybody who knows anything about painting over ceramic tiles please help. I have an entrance way full of ugly orange ceramic tiles that I really want to go away. Replacing them is messy and they are all in perfect shape. (Of course they are. The ugly ones never seen to chip or crack.)...

Thank you very much! I think I will give this a try in my own home before trying it in my clients. Sounds great!

I have no idea how it works yet as I am not able to buy the product unless I become an installer. It's about $ 14.00 per square foot to have it installed so I think I will be nixing the idea. Way too expensive so I think we will just replace the tiles. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Thanks again for your help. I have found a product called flex-c-ment. It's a flexible cement product that goes right over top of the existing tile. It's a bit pricey but it will avoid the mess at least. The colours will give me the faux finish that I am looking for so I think that might be...

I'm not sure if we have that product but I will check. What is it? Does it go over tiles or am I still left with ripping up the tile? Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you so much for the advice. I was hoping it would be much easier but I think you're right about just retiling. To clear up the confusion I have tiles in my own entranceway that I have thought about painting for years. My new client also has the same entranceway - different tiles -...

Thank you so much for your help. Yes we have those products over here. I am an interior designer but not a tile refinisher. I think I will check with the local paint stores and see if they have a product that they recommend. I was hoping there was someone who had actually done it and had any...

Sorry. I guess that's sort of important. Ha Ha! The tiles are made of ceramic and they have a high gloss sheen to them. I hope that helps. Thank you.

So what do I prime the floor with? Do I clean them first? Sand them? What? And what type of paint? Oil, latex? What do I seal the floor with after I have oainted it? Help? Too many questions and not enough answers.

I have a very ugly tile floor in the entrance way of my home. It's in great shape and because it is so ugly it will last forever. I'd like to try to paint these. I plan to tape the grout lines, sand the tile, apply primer, and then do a faux finish in the colours that I like. My question...
