How to repair a dented ceramic tile?

Hi 

My daughter dropped a heavy thing on the kitchen ceramic which resulted in a dent.

Just wondering how can I fix this one.

Re: Ceramic tile in the kitchen

Thanks for your reply, I checked the product that you have sent, does it come in only one colour (white)?

My kitchen ceramic is grey, is there anyway I can find same/ similar product in grey colour.

Hi @RihamMohamed , maybe @Ericl or @MitchellMc 

from Bunnings would be able to answer your question. 
there maybe other products on the internet that might be similar, just look up chipped ceramic tile repairs.

Re: Ceramic tile in the kitchen

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @RihamMohamed. It's wonderful to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about repairing a tile chip.

If there is no chip that can be glued back into place, it would be difficult to repair this damage. I'd encourage you to get a few professional quotes to see if they could repair the damage. I feel this would be the only way to achieve an unnoticeable repair, as the only other option I can think of would be to paint the white areas of the chip with grey to disguise them. You might like to look towards stone benchtop repair professionals as this might be a job they'd take on.

 

In answer to your question, there is no similar product to the touch-up kit in grey. We'd need to use a grey spray paint applied with a brush.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Re: How to repair a dented ceramic tile?

Hi @RihamMohamed,

 

Is there any chance of swapping the tile for one that is in an unobtrusive place, such as under the refrigerator? Although of course it might not be easy to lift out the tile without causing further damage...
