The door to my bathroom cabinet fell off, anybody knows how to get this leftover glue off the tiles and how to stick it back together?
>>
>>730701835
acetone, mineral spirits, or other commercial grade solvents.

There is also some on the door itself, will those things dissolve the paint on it?
>>
Okay okay... remain calm. But you have to act quick. Run down to your local hardware store. Purchase paint thinner and some razor blades. Get home as fast as possible. Open the paint thinner.... drink the whole thing and then cut you wrists.

If it is going back to the wall does it matter?
>>
>>730702207
Doesn't look like paint. Looks like melamin coated particleboard. If the adhesive is tacky, you could try something like Goo-gone. If it is hardened, I'd go with the acetone, avoid the mineral spirits, or look for something melamine safe.
>>
>>730702259
Thanks.
>>730702327
Got to account for me being a massive tard who might spill it on the parts that don't stick to the wall.
>>730702408
All right, I'll go with acetone. What kind of glue should I look for to get it back on the wall?
>>
>>730702408
Also, you might be able to use a razorblade.
Hold it at a 60 degree angle as if you were cleaning something off of glass.
>>
>>730702513
Liquid nails
>>
No it doesn't matter about cleaning it, go buy a tube of no-nails glue, squirt it over the old glue marks, stick the door where it was and jam a broom or stick under and against it.
Leave for a couple of hours .done
>>
>>730702604
Problem there is the adhesive that still remains will create a larger gap space between the board and the wall.

Best to do this the right way, not the "I'm too lazy to do things the right way, way"
>>
One more thing, if this door fell off, do you think the rest of the cabinet has a chance of falling on my head as well eventually?
>>
>>730702696
Seriously fuck the lazy shit of the guy up top. I live in a "renovated" apartment put together by some fuckwad like him. I hate this place.
>>
>>730703065
From the picture you gave us it looks like the shelving is individually installed. The other door could fall off, but without a better picture I'd say likely not.
>>
>>730703065
is the whole cabinet glued on? Seems like it would have some screws into the wall
>>
>>730703065
Quite possibly. Looks like whoever placed the adhesive doesn't know jack shit about patterning your adhesive for a good hold, he just globbed that shit in one spot and expected it to fucking stay.

Depends on how the cabinet is hung. Personally I would take them down, check hardware or adhesive (if he was an idiot) and grab some 3/4 x 3'' lag screws with corresponding washers and find a stud.
>>
>>730703271
If you do this, make sure to predrill the back of the cabinet, particle board can be a fucking dick when it comes to driving large screws through them.

This is how it looks like, I'm pretty anxious because it's right above my head when I'm on the toilet.

Go get anchors, the plastic things that look like wirenuts. Drill hole just smaller than their diameter into tile,start with an extremely small bit through the board into the tile. Those are your pilot holes. Then open em up with the bigget bit, pop in the plastic bits, secure the particle board to the wall with the screws. Caulk along the tile and board, this will not only seal the edge, but also help hold the board on the wall. Putty the screw holes.
>>
>>730703594
Oh fuck dude, fuck tile hung cabinets

Well, looks like he hung everything with adhesive. You will have to as well, unless you want to crack a tile or two.
>>
>>730703628
Are you talking about toggle-bolts?

Don't know if that's feasible through tile without fucking up the tile job.
>>
>>730703836
He wont crack the tile as long as he doesnt use a fucking hammer drill. Just needs a good bit and take it easy. Cracked maybe one tile in the hundreds of bathroom hardware pieces ive installed on tile.
>>
Marine, Industrial, and Residential coatings expert here. This is a pretty easy problem to fix. You're actually going to need a xylene based thinner to remove this sub par two part contractor grade epoxy. Xylene (or MEK) are gonna be the only thing to get that off, first you need to get one of the thinners, some razor blades and get back to your house quickly enough to drink the entire bottle and then cut your wrists
>>
>>730703918
Nah, and he'd have to hope its hardie or wonderboard for that, without shiplap behind it. Although newer appartment thatd be fine. But i mean the readhead plastic anchors. We use em all the time in tile, never had a problem with broken tile.

TFW Spics use glue instead of anchor bolts

>>730704240
Right? "They take the jobs white people wont do"

No they offer to do them for less, and do a correspondingly shitty job.

who uses fucking glue to stick a cabinet to a tiled wall ffs.....
>>
>>730701835
Work with my father who is a carpenter. Just use acetone or mineral spirit to get rid of old glue use appropriate amount cuz it could peel the skin of the cabinet then if you wanna make sure it doesnt fall off again just screw it to the wall via stud in the inside of the wall

Tile is cut on a tile-saw, with water, for a reason.

The same thermodynamic reasons we use water while cutting it, would affect it when drilling.

Ever seen a tile-saw? I'm guessing not if anyone in this thread thinks it's appropriate to take a power-drill through fucking tile in any way/shape/form.

>>730701835
Acetone or keratine

Is the glue really hard? Looks like PL, you gonna have a bitch scraping that off
>>
1. open window
2. Acetone (aka brake cleaner) to dissolve the glue.
3. scrape remaining glue off.
4. ?????
5. profit.
>>
>>730705698
Vermont so tiny, Canada big. U wish you had a percent of the syrup we have in ur tiny vermont

>>730705869
Acetone isn't brake cleaner you fucking mongol, it's nail polish remover.

Nah I'd rather have drinkable water

Shut up!

>>730706004
nail polish remover is expensive and some brake cleaner actually has acetone as a main ingredient, usually the non-chlorinated shit. read some labels corndog.
