Many thanks for the very helpful article. As someone who has tried and failed at DIY tile work in the past, would suggest folks take a class on using a tile saw prior to starting on this sort of project. Most large home center chains offer these classes, which include some hands-on practice. They also offer hands-on how to tile workshops, which I would also recommend. Any free practice and guidance will save DIY-ers time and money down the road and result in a better-finished product.

Thanks for the very informative video. I am glad that someone also explains and shows the little things like surface preperation and back buttering.I am planning on tackling me backsplash this spring, so the videos and explanations were extremely helpful.
Thanks again!!!!

They sell some grout remover at the hardware store. it’s suppose to help remove it after it dries. Ask at your local hardware store.

I know that, I just wanted to know if you knew if there was any other way to help remove most of the grout off the tile, since Im rubbing one by one off each square.

The best tip is too late. Grout should be cleaned immediately after-wood so the grout doesn’t stick to the glass tiles.

My husband and I just installed a stone and glass mosaic backsplash in our Kitchen. We’ve finished applying the grout and let it set and dry. Now our issue is cleaning the grout off the tile. The grout comes off clean from the glass but the stone, not so much. Is there any tips you can give to clean the grout off the stone easier and faster?
