We have an old house. In one bathroom, there is a towel rack attached to the tile wall right over the tub. It's a terrible place for a towel rack and it has bugged me for years. I am reluctant to remove it myself, because it's attached to the tile with what looks like the same cement (grout?) that they use to attach the tiles. The cement is white and very hard, like grout.
I tried tapping it with a sharpened screwdriver and a hammer. I was able to chip away some of the cement, but I am worried about cracking or scratching the tile underneath.
Is there a good way to remove the towel rack?
