How I remove grout / tile adhesive the easy way quick fast still might be a little hard work but not as hard as scrapping on the dry hard tile adhesive this way was learned from hard work and sore hands arms and shoulders. As promised how I remove tile adhesive the easiest way I know so simple but took me a hard lesson to learn now I share it with you the water wets the tile adhesive soaking in and making it softer and less dusty when scrapped of using a sharp paint scraper some what a stiff one to. Doing it this way will cause less damage to the wall below making it easy to paint plaster if re tile again . yes it can be tiled or plastered over but not as easy and will take more plaster and adhesive to achieve a great result this way will save that harder work and give you that blank canvas you want... again this might not work on all wall tile adhesive as some are very water prof but worth a shot even if so and i wish you luck on your job be you a pro or DIYer #remove #adhesive #DIY this job is in a kitchen but could be a bathroom or any where that had tiles, How to easily remove tile adhesive from walls 98% don't know this

    • I add a bit of pva as it seems to stop the water running down the wall holding it in place as it soaks in. If you get lucky an old plastering trowel does the trick but if it’s a little bit tougher the small scraper is way easier on you body as you demonstrated.
