I attached something to a tile in the bathroom using super glue some time ago.
Now I'd like to remove it, any good advice on the procedure? May be using alchool?
I really don't want to damage the tile

Thanks!

Do you have access to a time machine?

You're unlikely to find a solvent for the glue but you could check with the manufacturer if you can remember what product you used.

Without knowing what you stuck to the tile it's difficult to advise you on what mechanical methods you could attempt. Do you have a photograph? That would help determine what tools you could get in with and a method for removing it.

Or failing Big-alls sugestion soaking it with acetone (nail polish remover) will do the trick, but be cautious as it may stain porous tiles!
