I redid my bathroom a few months ago and some grout got all over the tub…

I was never really bothered by it..but I want it up now…

any idea what I can use?

I heard acetone?
Grout is a cementitious product. Acetone is a solvent for plastics, epoxies, and other similar items, but not grout. You may be able to get it off of a porcelain finish or enameled steel, but I’m not optimistic. If your tub is acrylic or gel-coat fiberglass, you’re screwed.

Hello everyone on OT. I would like to apologize if this topic has been discussed. I cannot search so I can’t search for this topic.

I’m looking to get a portable air conditioner for my apartment. I can’t seem to find any details on google.com. I was wondering how easy the setup was since you have to vent the hose through the window. Also, how much electricity it uses? I found a few with a EER rating of 9.0 (is that any good)? Thanks for looking!
cant get a window unit? i hear the portable units dont work so well
