I seem to have a lot of the samples from B, D, & F. Can someone tell me how to restore the finish on them? They are clean but lack any sheen and I really love them. Thanks.

It was just cheaper and less time-consuming to treat them as asbestos than to get an analysis done on each tile type to determine whether it had asbestos. I'm looking for vintage-looking flooring for my 2010 kitchen reno. We plan to keep the style of the kitchen the same as currently (with the shelves/wooden valence above the sink)!
