Ah, now that can be an ugly, messy problem! If you’ve tried scrubbing with a damp sponge or towel and you just can’t remove all of the remaining bits of cement, try mixing up a solution of vinegar and water. After coating your mosaic with this solution and letting it sit for a few minutes, use a flat razor blade or spackling tool to scrape off as much of this leftover grout as you can. Return to Grout/Adhesive/Primer/Sealer Questions Is there a specific type of glue especially for mosaic tiles? What’s the difference between your glue and glue I can get from the store such as elmer’s glue? Unlike other glues, our Mosaic Mercantile Adhesive dries clear so that you do not see a glob of dried glue through the semi-opaque tiles. The glue is also specially formulated so that it dries in about 7-8 minutes allowing you enough time to move the tesserae before it really sets in.
