Hi again,
Can someone give me a few pointers with cleaning the adhesive from tiles please, I sick of spending time cleaning the ahdesive from between tiles that get squeezed up from the middle (between the tiles), I'm probably putting on too much, but does anyone else spend some time cleaning between tiles, if so what tool if any do you use.
 
I use a scraper and a sponge..if its squirting up through the joints then at least you know you have a good bed......lol.......dave....
 
Quick stanley knife when packing up followed by a stiff wet paintbrush to shove it back behind the tiles
 
I use a thin pointed trowel and the back of my wrist, lol , nice n quick, and good for meter after meter after meter of bloody mosaics :happy:
 
I bought a "Grout line brush" from trade tiler I think, about 49p. Does a great job.
