repair chips in porcelain tiles of shower floor

I have recently re-grouted shower floor, however when removing the grout I chipped the tiles in a couple areas.  The chips are small but do stand out.  I would like to paint a matching colour (light grey) but not sure what type of paint would work on porcelain tiles.  I also need to colour match.  The chips are not that deep so an epoxy fill is not really needed but I open to it if the paint will hold better.

 

Second question... the tiler put in the drain about 1mm higher than the tiles.  Therefore, water is pooling along the 100mm of grout lines and tile leading to the drain.  I have sealed the new grout, however the last 100mm still looks wet from the water.  Can I apply a clear polyurethane coat or some other clear coat that is non penetrating to the grout lines to build it up and keep a dry look?  Any product suggestions?

Thank you in advance :smile:
