How to remove grip

How to remove grip

Grout is a special building composition, which decoratively disguises the seams between ceramic and porcelain tiles. The grout also serves as a reliable protection against moisture, which can get between the tiles and further contribute to the fact that the tile will lag behind the walls or floor. When the grout is frozen, it becomes so strong that it is very difficult to remove it.

1
The grout between the tiles can be removed only by applying some physical strength. There are several ways to get rid of grouts:

  • using a knife;
  • with drill;
  • with the help of dreamed.

Consider all the options separately.

2
The removal method with the help of a construction knife is good because the tile integrity is controlled. Gently leading the blade of the knife along the seam, you can remove the entire grout and do not damage the inadvertent tile. True, the removal of grouting with a knife will be the longest. Before starting work, moisten the grout to the special building composition for its softening.

With the help of a flip drill, you need to remove this:

  1. Moisten the seams with a mixture of water and vinegar (proportion 2/1).
  2. Give the solution to absorb within 20-30 minutes.
  3. Insert the drill to the drill, the diameter of which will be a pair of millimeters less than the thickness of the grouting seam.
  4. Turn on the drill to the smallest turnover and slowly lead the drill along the seam.

It is possible that the first time the entire grout will not be deleted. Then its remnants again moisturize and pass the drill along the same way. This method is not very good because the drill can slip toward and damage the tile.

4
The most reliable and safe version of the removal is the use of a special electrical tool called "Dremel". It works, as an ordinary electrolovka, but instead of the peel in it there is a flat semi-trig. Do not forget to handle the old grout with water with a vinegar or a special means for softening the grout.

5
The grout, which fell on the surface of the tile and froze on it, can be removed using acidic water and a conventional sponge, but only if the grout is on the tile of no more than one day. If the grout managed to grably grably with the glossy or matte surface of the tile, it will have to remove it with a special means, completely softening solid composition. These funds are sold in construction stores in the same departments, where it is putting.

The grout has to be deleted if she lost its original look and I want to update it. Or in order to change several cracked tiles on the floor or wall. Any removal removal method requires accuracy and care.
