Removing broken levelling clips?

How are you breaking them off?

 

We used the perfect level master system, the clips break / broke off easily when kicking them or hitting them in the direction of the grout line.

 

See my post below - shows a link to a video (different brand but shows how easy they snap when hit along the grout line).

@pocster has experience of cutting them out with a dremmel. So maybe ask him how not to do it?!?

Have to be honest when I did my walls with them didn’t realise you are meant to break them in the grout direction . I glee fully went round with my rubber mallet smashing them off across the grout line . Only a few snapped wrong

Unfortunately yes.... and I achieved that wonderful chip trying to retrieve one of these levelling clips ?

In the end, we we were able to get them out or push them so far in they are covered with grout.

Your tiles look like a dark grey - if grouts a similar colour you might get away with it .
