The tiles look great. Depending on the texture of the tiles you might benefit from a specialised sponge. Rubi do a really nice one with 2 scrubbing textures. It's called the mixed superpro sponge.

Thanks, they’re sort of grippy without being too rough. In hindsight, I probably should have changed the sponge water at least once which would have left them cleaner for the ‘polish’. The sponge I have seems decent and has a scrubby side so I might try that dry-ish for the final bit instead of a microfibre cloth.

In contrast to tiling I was thoroughly enjoying grouting, at least until I got to ‘polish the residue away’. YouTube videos have a guy lightly wiping over the work, I had to dampen and scrub each tile individually! Test section looks good though.
