    Remove grout or not?
    I put snap together porcelain tile in my bathroom over a heated floor. With this tile I uses special flexible grout because it's a floating floor.
    When I bought the grout I was not going to use it for about a week. Asked the guy at Menards and he gave me a mixer (chrome)

    Problem: When I mixed the grout the chrome came off and is in the grout. I did not see it untli it was too late.

    Do I need to remove the grout? And if so how? Do you think the chrome pieces will work its way down into the heated floor wiring?

    Menards says its my problem and I am afraid to do anything without advice. Bathroom been down for over a month...

    Thanks

    NO, dontremove the grout, mix more grout and spread it over the existing and it should fix your problem and cover up the crome, at least try that first
