restoring a honed finish on limestone

I just had my bathroom done in 12x24 limestone tile.
The contractor apparently did not clean the floor before sealing it. It looked dirty and smeary so I asked what could be done. He tried acetone, but it did nothing because of the penetrating sealer over the grime. He tried buffing it with a professional type floor machine. Now it looks bad again because it started to take on a shine in some areas...., not a good solution. He suggested machine sanding. Has anyone tried this on a new floor? I just want to have a clean honed finish like it had, so that it can be resealed. Its just a small area, maybe 4x6.
