How to repair chipped tile floor?

A friend used putty to fill up deep chips and sanded it lightly, then for all cosmetic chips and filler holes she used finger nail polish and you could not tell it had been repaired! You may have to blend a couple colors to get the exact hue, but it does work great if you can match it. Hope this helps Sharon

Markers the same color to help to hide the chip.

Hi Sharon!

I have listed first the products you can get for this project. You can find them at Home Depot, Lowe's and Amazon.

How to Repair Holes or Cracks in Ceramic Tile

Patching unwanted holes in glazed tile like this can be a tricky proposition. Here's a solution that may not always be perfect, but will make a big improvement. Polyester resin (Bondo) or auto body filler, often used to repair car bodies. Mix up a small batch by adding some hardener and stirring it thoroughly. Using a putty knife, press the resin into the hole slightly overfilling it. Then just as the material begins to harden while it's somewhat rubbery, trim off the excess with a razor blade.

Next use 600 grit sandpaper to sand the filler smooth. Wetting the paper with water makes it work best. Now it's time to try and match the color of the tile. A porcelain touch up kit which is available at most home improvement centers comes with several different colors of paint. You can also use artists acrylic paints available from Michaels, Hobby Lobby, art supply stores, and online.

The trick here is to mix these different colors together until we come up with one that matches the tile. Apply the paint with a small brush. You can test it on a nearby tile. When you get it the way you want it, then just paint over the patch and let that dry. Give it one final sanding with that very fine sandpaper and you'll have, well, maybe not a perfect match, but something that's a heck of a lot better than what you started with.

I have used the small fiberglass patching kit that is available at your auto or hardware store. If you can grind up a piece of the broken tile and add it to the compound before you put it in the hole it will cover and hide nicely.
