    Thank you Speedball for the quick answer. My job was a little different in that the aluminum frame was adhered to ceramic tile.

    Thank you Speedball for the quick reply. Since posting question, I found Jasco Premium Paint & Epoxy Remover at Lowe's. Just brush it on, let it stand 15 minutes, then scrape softened mastic with a wooden shim. Clean up with a rag moistened with paint thinner.

    If you are trying to remove the adhesive why don't you use a razor blade scraper, be careful that you don't cut yourself or scratch the tile.
