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.

hoping someone knew a quicker way.

I find a box cutter about the right combination of flexible and blade
width for scraping off bits of set grout. The waterproof stuff once fully
cured is only going to come off by physical removal.

If you have a steady hand a stanley knife with the blade in paper
scraping configuration will give you an even wider scraper edge.


I have a plastic window scraper that takes a standard stanley
blade. Useful for going over a window, wetted with water and
some washing up liquid, after external painting, to remove
any miscreant blobs and small splashes of paint.
