How to remove "grout" around top of tub
A friend has a Jacuzzi tub with plastic insert "walls". The was mildew
on the grout which she attempted to hide with some sort of quick-fix grout. The mildew now looks terrible and I want to get rid of it all and redo it. What can I use to clean it out but not hurt the tub? A sharp chisel might work. Are there solvents or cleaning chemicals? Dremel tool? Wire brush??? |

There are grout removal tools. Go to the tile section of HD or Lowes. Dremel
also makes a grout removal attachment. "William W. Plummer" wrote in message news:RImwd.205175$V41.72290@attbi_s52... A friend has a Jacuzzi tub with plastic insert "walls".
