I have about 20 quarry tiles that were lifted to dig a new gulley to a manhole, and that I now want to put back. Some of them have black permanent marker on them (measurement lines I stupidly made when I removed them, when I hadn''t intended to reuse them). They are a sort of tawny red quarry tile of recent manufacture.
I was going to clean the old mortar/adhesive from them by immersing them in brick acid. Does anyone think this will also remove the marker pen? If not, how would you remove it? As the tiles aren't glazed I wondered if I could try to sand it off. Any better ideas appreciated.
Cheers
