    hi micsut try a sharp scraper or blade or place your tile face down on a piece of foam and use angle grinder with diamond blade to grind adh off (glasses a must very dusty)

    If it's dispersion (tubbed gear) adhesive soak the tiles in water and it will soften up, if cement addy you could try a good scraper or a grinder, don't forget the goggles
