Tools and Hardware Reviews of Dremel 568 Grout Removal Kit
Customer Review: Good tool--Here's how to use it.
Summary: 4 Stars
I would recommend this attachment for anyone planning to remove grout. Some people have complained about its usefulness and the tendency for the bits to break. I think this complain is about the 1/16 inch bit. Any bit this small can break if too much pressure is used. In any case, these problems are mostly avoidable.
The first key point is to be slow and gentle, particularly with the 1/16 bit, which is the one I had to use since I was de-grouting mosaic tiles. Grinding up grout takes time and nothing Dremel makes is suitable for brute force. Start very slowly and gradually see how you can speed up without having to force the tool.
The second is to remember to NOT go back and forth. The abrading surface is the side of the bit and when you go forward you are pushing the point into the grout, which can snap the bit. Pull, lift, pull, lift. This takes a bit of concentration, since we are so used to back and forth motions.
The attachment is better than the bit alone, although you have to do corners without it. I suggest you leave them for last when you are familiar with the tool. There is a tendency without the attachment to bear down too hard with a naked bit and the guide tabs help keep you in the grout and off the tiles.
And buy an extra bit. This is a good SOP with any tool that has a small part, bulb, cutting edge etc. that can either break or wear out easily. (I didn't need mine.)
