    Removing grout and tiles from drywall
    Made a wall mural using colored grout and pieces of tile. Would like to remove it but it won't come off. I'm thinking it would be easier to cut it out and piece in with new drywall?

    The adhesive used will penetrate the paper on the sheetrock. Easier to remove S/R and install new.
