I am trying to remove the grout between the wall tiles in the shower as it is discoloured. The grout is very hard with few cracks. I have tried the Vitrex tool which is useless on this grout, Dremel bit which works but is very slow and now the Bosch PMF 180 with the grout blade but it is so slow and the blade is relatively thick.

Does anyone have any suggestions please, it would be appreciated.

I don't want to chip the tiles.

Thanks Derek

Ive tried one of these in display in b&q, utter rubbish, you would be quicker retiling, it also chips the tile quite a bit, I questioned the guy in the shop about the chipping, he said you won't see the chips when the new grout goes back in.
