So we recently layed some spanish tile, and hoped to finish it up this weekend (except the sealant). So we have about 60 layed, no grout. Evidently, our largest dog took a massive diarrhea-like **** on 2 tiles. My wife says the tile absorbed the moisture, and the **** is stuck. Anyone know if there's a way to clean it, and make tile..uh...un-absorb it? I'd hate to have to rip it up just because of some dog ****.

Yah, rip it out and replace it. Make sure you wear your depends around the tile from now on, you "dog". https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

next question: what's the best way to rip out tile without damaging adjacent tiles? And how to remove the thinset?



I guess better now than before the sealant/after grout.



I'm kinda pissed right now.

I use a chisel and a hammer.

If you haven't grouted yet, just put a screwdriver in the center and smash it. You can use a gasket scraper and a hammer to get the thinset off if it doesnt come off easy.

ok, thanks for the tips



man, this really sucks

Air chisel to remove the thinset from the floor. It works great hardy break a sweat.

haha, suckas! my wife's friend got most of it up. She said they were literally scraping off layers of feces. They then used "Kaboom, tile and grout restorer," and soaked the living crap out of it (wait...that makes too much sense). She said she thinks she got it all up, but they have to wait for it to dry to see if there's any discoloration.



but thanks anyways! I really do need to get an air chisel...

Bad dog!

lesson learned, poop on spanish tile is bad!

yes, let it be known

Oddly enough some spanish tiles are colored with ureah... But not dog ****... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/unsure.png

Keep this in mind, it's very easy to replace them now. Not easy at all once they are grouted and sealed.

well, hopefully we won't have any reason to replace any once they are grouted and sealed. I'm going to wait quite awhile before I move the piano back onto the tile. For this reason, I have to complete half of a room, grouted and sealed, wait for it to cure, move the piano, then do the other half.

muratic acid

you'd be looking at one dead dog.

Spanish tile reminds me of Tom Anderson.

thsts shitty
