Removing excess "Great Stuff" from tile.

The website advised "petrolium" based cleaners. Like what for example? And would that be harmful to tile? Hi strangers, Same problem occurred to me, nothing was working, gasoline, acetone, alcohol, vaseline, everything I could get my hands on. I doubt you'll find a tough enough household scrubber. Then I tried elbow grease and a pumice stone. My tile is white again Of all the things... Try it. You may have to visit the beauty aisle of your local pharmacy, try around the pedicure stuff or bath products. Sorry guys, I know this may bring great shame to a handyman. Haha... -- |

Days late and dollars short. I mentioned a pumice stone days ago to clean it off your hands. Want to do my feet for me? I'm not a "shame". |
