|  There has to be an easier way of removing large areas of old adhesive prior to patch | |
Hello Gents,
I carry out commercial kitchen maintenance and all too often have to remove areas of damaged tiles due to impact usually, and relay with new. The problem is always removing all the old adhesive certainly when on occasions the area in question is quite large. I have been looking for a specific power tool that i imagine to be like an electric plane but for concrete. Any ideas gents?

How about leaving it and going over with levelling compound?
