i recently i pulled the livingroom carpets and kitchen tiles to expose the underlying concrete in my melbourne second level apartment. my intentions is to polish the concrete.
the cement used to hold down the kitchen tiles is still visible and about 3mm raised from the underlying concrete surface.
owing to ongoing problems with my neighbours, using an industrial grinder to remove the cement is not an option, hence this request.
i have tried using hydrochloric acid (33%) with some success but this is an ugly process.
what advice could you offer me here? basically i'm looking for a silent way of removing the cement in preparation for final polishing.
thanks and regards,

the material used to hold down the tiles resembles cement...... i'm also wondering if petrol will help loosen it up?
