I have got tile stickers on some of them and they look really nice, its just when the light shines on them I can see they have no shine.

If you live in a part of the country with hard water, it's limescale buildup that's dulled the tiles. Lots of products on the market for limescale, find the one that works best for your particular problem and that should help to bring back the shine. Once you get them all pretty again, use a squeegie to wipe the water off the walls after every shower to prevent the buildup from coming back.

This sounds funny, but the best thing is a good car wax. It works great and the water just beads up and the tiles are easy to keep clean. Use a microfiber cloth to buff it up.
ONE NOTE OF WARNING - Don't and I repeat DON'T get the car wax on the tile floor. Especially the shower or tub bottom. Slip city.

Am I correct in assuming your tiles ARE clean and only need shining? If so, there is a product on the market called "Jubilee" that will put a shine on anything!

Easy! You may use Clorox Pen sample on tile grouts. This cleaning tool really helps make my bathroom a lot cleaner and whiter. Here's a good site http://www.upkb.com/cloroxpen.php for cleaning tips and product details.

Dear Emma
you could try some vinegar in warm water to soak and rinse the tiles. Smells good too!

You should try to use this new product called BAM. It work great. It would bring back the shine to your tiles. You just have let it sit for about 20 - 30 min. depend on how bad of shape your tiles are in.

Go to HomeDepot or Lowes or Ace and tell someone in there about it. They might have a laquer or clearcoat type sealer product you could use that would be O.K. for your tiles and stickers, and bring back a shine.
