the white marks are probably the acetone affecting any polish that may be on the tiles you could try stripping them back with a 10:1 ammonia sloution even as strong as 5:1 make sure you rinse them well and then reseal with something like HG Golvpolish or Klear.
It may work and shouldn't cause any damage but I would try an inconspicuous area first.
Putting nail varnish remover to anything should always be approached with caution anything with plastic or wax in it will ussually cloud as you described
