Need To Remove Thin Set


Hello. I had to remove tile in the kitchen.



Now the thinset is uneven. Has anybody tried to smooth out thin set? The area is about 200 sq ft.



Thanks, Alexander.

    Cold chisel and hammer or rent a roto hammer with a chisel bit.

    Better to buff or sand it. Or you can use a thin layer of cement to even it out

    Is this on a concrete floor? If not, you should remove the backerboard - that will take care of the problem entirely.

    Whoever does it - give them proper eye and hand protection from the flying debree.

    If you are going to put something on top of it anyway, I would use self leveling cement. A good idea on old floors before retiling in any case, as they tend to be uneven.
