Was grouting some new tiles, using the combined waterproof

remove the residue?


No-one? I can scrape it off with a chisel without damage to the tile. Was
hoping someone knew a quicker way.


There is stuff called HG cement grout film remover 1L - "the grout remover
for all types of tiles and flagstones"

https://www.amazon.co.uk/HG-cement-g...3910865&sr=8-7

At £8.59 a litre.

There's probably a PDF somewhere giving its precise chemical composition
and whether it contains anything over and above the standard cheaper
recommendations which are of acid of various types/strengths
