Hi,
I have just recently tiled our bathroom with 10x10cm marble tiles and have used a marble impregnator then grouted. However now i've grouted and its dried theres alot of grout residue left on the tiles. Any ideas as to what would be the best way to remove the residue.

Your help would be gladly welcome.

You often get a whitish film left after grouting, this can usually be buffed of with a dry cloth. If you have not cleaned all the grout of then you will have to get a grout remover that is safe to use on your marble and also will not affect the impregnator.

Do you think grout remover will help with my newly laid and completely destroyed copper slate tiles on kitchen floor?
