Ok, tiles are usually hard ceramic coated.





Now, I would wash them in a mild acid, to take a bit of the coating off, and then scuff them up some more, and hit them with an enamel, or even a latex paint.





If you use latex, then you cant wash them, or the latex will peel, enamel you can wash and no peeling.





Ive heard of people using kiltz as a prewash before painting, so you may want to try that.





I wish you well...

you can scuff up the tile, then use a primer then use a good enamel paint.

Basically, once you've applied the paint, you'll want to clear coat with a sealant. That way when you go to wash the tile you'll not wipe off the paint.
What ever you do don't use waterbased paint because it will come off when wet. Try using a permanent enamel paint. That way the only way of getting it off is with paint thinner. Good luck.
