Blimey, I did a re-grout in a 4m2 shower cubicle the other week with 150x150 plain white tiles and grout (I felt like online tiler did in his vlog....very funny). Took about 4-5 hrs to grind it all out with a Worx Sonicrafter (like the fein), and it took 2 blades to do it. I'd charge for 4 blades, just to make sure you got enough!
Saying that I also bought an adaptor to fit bosch and fein blades. So I have replaced the WORX blades to a Bosch one now. When the bosch one wears out, I will be getting a fein blade for it. I removed 29 tiles with the bosch the other day, and it's still ok. So I think the sonicrafter blades are probably a bit naff in a commercial sense, and I can't wait to try the fein blades.
If you got 5sq m of mosaic, I wonder how long and how many blades it's gonna take you!! Good luck fella!! I also agree using the epoxy grout colourant is probably a much more cost effective solution. I will always try to persuade my clients to go with that option if I get asked again in future.
It's been 3 days since you posted so I guess your still at it? :lol: Couldn't resist.
