Removing glue residue from tiles can be challenging, especially after renovations or when removing stickers and labels. If you want an efficient way to clean your tiles, there are some practical techniques that can make the process easier. In this guide, we’ll show you different ways to remove glue from tiles, including using EXFAK glue remover spray and a precision knife.

Effective Methods to Remove Glue from Tiles

1. Hot Water and Neutral Soap

If the glue is not too stubborn, you can try a simple method:

• Heat some water and mix it with neutral soap.
• Soak a cloth or sponge in the solution and rub the affected area.
• Let it sit for a few minutes, then gently scrape with a plastic spatula to avoid scratches.

This method works well for weaker glues, such as those from common stickers.

2. White Vinegar

White vinegar is a great ally in removing glue residue. It helps dissolve adhesive without damaging the tiles.

• Apply white vinegar directly to the glue and let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Scrub with a cloth or sponge until the residue is removed.
• If necessary, repeat the process.

3. Baking Soda and Vegetable Oil

For more stubborn glue, a mixture of baking soda and vegetable oil can help loosen the residue.

• Mix one tablespoon of baking soda with a few drops of vegetable oil.
• Apply it to the glue and let it sit for about 10 minutes.
• Use a cloth to scrub the surface, then rinse.

4. EXFAK Glue Remover Spray and Precision Knife (Professional Method)

For tougher glues, such as tile adhesive residue, wallpaper glue, or industrial adhesives, the best option is to use a glue remover spray and proper tools like the EXFAK precision knife.

How to Use:

1. Apply EXFAK Glue Remover Spray – Spray directly onto the glue and let it sit for a few minutes. The product will dissolve the glue, making it easier to remove.
2. Use a Cloth or Sponge – After the waiting time, wipe the area with a dry cloth to remove excess product.
3. Use the EXFAK Precision Knife – For more stubborn residues, gently scrape the surface with the EXFAK knife, being careful not to scratch the tiles.
4. Finish with a Damp Cloth – Wipe the area with a damp cloth to remove any remaining product and let it dry naturally.

This method is ideal for heavy-duty cleaning and ensures that tiles remain glue-free without damage.

Important Precautions

• Always test products on a small area before applying them to the entire surface.
• Wear protective gloves when handling chemicals.
• Avoid using overly abrasive objects to prevent scratching the tiles.

With these tips, you can effectively and safely remove any type of glue from your tiles!
