Acetone or lacquer thinner should do it.
The difference between the three are as follows: Mesh backing: is a fabric mesh that is applied to the back of glass mosaics. This is commonly done on glass tile that is not transparent (not able to see through). This is important because after you install your glass tile on the wall or counter top, you do not want to see the mesh backing after installation. Paper Faced: this is when you have a transparent glass that you can see through, most manufacturers are applying a paper face on the FRONT of the glass tile. After you install the tile and the adhesives dries, you wet down the paper facing with a sponge. Let the water penetrate for about 15 minutes and the paper facing will peel right off. Clean any excess glue film from the paper face and finish by grouting. The only downfall to paper face is you cannot see the tiles through the paper face. MAKE SURE you have the right tile before installation! Film Faced: This is similar to the paper face only slightly better. Film faced is a clear facing that allows you to see the tiles, and pulls off a lot easier. The film facing is more like a sticker over the tile. It is much easier to pull off the film facing after installation.
Yes, it does . Old tile glue will ball up and mess your job.
Melt it with Goof Off.
Scrape it gently with a craft knife held nearly parallel to the tile.
Most glues can be removed from lino with Goof Off. Rub the glue with a rag and a few drops till it loosens.
It depends on the type of ceramic adhesive. Many of them can be taken off tile with lacquer thinner on a rag.
if it is glazed ceramic tile - let it dry fully (I let mine dry for a few weeks) then CAREFULLY pop the glue off with a chisel. Hold the chisel so the flat end is up and the beveled end is on the tile and gently push the tip of the chisel into the (expanded) gorilla glue. hit the end of the chisel with the palm of your hand and the glue will pop off the ceramic.
Yes, soften it with Goof Off, then scrape it with a craft knife, blade almost parallel with tile.
If you mean from the back off tile that has come off a wall or floor - soak the tile for 3-4 hours in hot water, then most glues will wipe off. If you mean glue that has got on front of laid tile, use a sharp craft knife to get under the edge and flick it off.
usually an ice scraper will work. if this does not work, try dry ice on glue, then use ice scraper to scape off. dry ice will cause old glue to become brittle.
As a do-it-yourselfer, the easiest way to install glass tile is to use mesh mounted glass tiles. This is because they come already in patterns in larger sections that you apply the adhesive too and mount on the wall. They are also easier to cut where you need to go around outlets or at the end of the wall, although you may still have to use glass nippers to cut some smaller pieces of tile to finish things off. It should be noted that the easiest way to install glass tile will always be to hire a professional! The easiest option would be to have the tiles professionally installed,this is not an easy DIY job. You can find soem instructional videos on youtube,if you prefer to do it yourself.
Use a glue gun. The glue will peel off fairly easily when you are ready to remove it.
