How can I remove the glue on the back of the tile?

I have quite a few tiles came off in my apartment. Brocken and I are not reused, but not knowing how to get the glue off. I used a hammer and chisel to get off the concrete, but I'm afraid to do the same with the tile because I am going to break. Any ideas?

You need to use an angle grinder and be careful. We redesigned the olive garden all the time and they want tile that reuse has not broken with a chisel in the process Removal of old tiles. An angle grinder is the quickest and easiest way to this. You do not run the risk of breaking with a hammer and chisel, as said he feared. I suggest you wear safety goggles too. If you do not access an angle grinder then I suggest as hydrochloric acid. Ask an employee of Home Depot, Lowe's, etc. where you can find. Use rubber gloves, safety glasses and a brush in the glue. Then use a wire brush. How many layers you use depends on the strength of the adhesive. DO NOT put the acid on skin. If you go this route remember safety first. Also, be sure to try it on a card before using it in all of them and to ensure no damage or discolor the upper surface.

Replacing cheap Kitchen floor tile with ceramic tile?

I was wondering if I could just put down ceramic tile over top of the cheap tile that is in my kitchen now. The cheap tile that now is on now is that kind which I believe has a sticky backing to it and is real flimsy.
I basically have no idea what I am doing. I saw at lowes a brand called “Edge Precision Tile”, that looks easy enough, does anyone have any knowledge or experience with this? Any help is greatly appreciated. Any web sites on how to tile a kithen would be handy too. thanks!

It is really up to you but my recomendation is to remove the old tile. You can run into problems when doing this if the tile adhesive on your old tiles react some way negatively with the motar You could run into problems. Also depending on the height of the tiles already you could run into problems when you try to install a transition strip between the kitchen and another floor type. The old tiles can also degrade and cause the mortar to seep and develop cracks in your moter.
