Wear wraparound safety goggles, work gloves, long sleeves, long work pants, and a dust mask. Lay a canvas drop cloth over the bathtub, shower floor, or any fixtures you want to protect from chipping. Cover any drains with painter's tape. Shower tiles are usually installed over drywall and/or thin backerboard over drywall. Ripping the entire substrate away is much faster than removing the tiles piece by piece, but will break all your tiles. Here's how to go about it: Chip away the rounded bullnose tiles from the edge and top of a shower with a hammer and chisel. Cut through the drywall along the edge of the tiles with a utility knife. Cut along the edge of the wall studs, if possible. A reciprocating saw is the best tool for this job. Place a pry bar against this line and lever away large sections of the wall. Work it left and right to loosen the nails holding the drywall in. Once the side walls are removed, remove the back wall of tiles by breaking tiles in a vertical line with a hammer, then prying the exposed edge. . This method is slower, but allows you to save some of the tiles for reuse. Scrape away some of the grout in a long line using a utility knife, grout saw, or rotary grinder. Place a chisel against the edge of a tile in this line, almost flat against a wall, and tap with a hammer. If all goes well, the tile will pop out. If it doesn't budge or if a small piece chips off, remove grout from the sides and try again. This becomes easier once the first tile is removed. An electric chisel can speed this job up. After chiseling away tiles, scrape away the adhesive with a putty knife or hand scraper. Try soaking the tiles in water first to soften the mortar.

Use a couple towels to cover the floor around the toilet's base, even around the back side, to prevent water or cleaning powder from getting on the floor. Don't use new ones, unless you want to have a full load of washing to do use dirty towels or towels fresh from the shower so you don't create any more laundry. Paper towels will work, but you will need to use nearly a full roll to effectively cover the floor around the toilet. Most toilets have a shut-off valve around the rear, so reach back and turn the valve to the opposite side to cut off the water supply. If you don't cut off the water supply, you won't be able to empty the tank and bowl to access the metal marks. If your metal marks are on the outside of the toilet only, don't worry about turning off the water supply, as it won't get in the way of your work. Take off the tank lid and place it onto a towel, then hold down the toilet handle to flush the toilet and let all of the water drain out from the tank. The water in the bowl should mostly flush away, but there will be some remaining. This process may take several minutes, so get comfortable. If your toilet doesn't automatically flush the water running into the bowl from the tank, flush it when it gets full and then continue to hold down the handle. As long as nothing is left in the tank, you're ready to move on. There will still be some water left in the bowl, and the most effective way to get rid of this without flushing it with the handle is to pour about 3USgal (11L) of water into the bowl from a bucket. Pour it from a high height, about 2ft (0.61m) above the toilet, to simulate the flushing pressure. This is where the towels on the floor come in handy, as you are very likely to miss the bowl at first or accidentally splash some out. Take a large, dry sponge and dab out any remaining water in the bowl and tank. As long as the marks are uncovered by water, they are ready to be scoured and cleaned away, but get rid of any remaining water as best as you can. You may need several sponges to get the remaining water out, so consider buying a multipack of large car washing sponges. You can also take this opportunity to clean out the bowl with soap if it is especially dirty, but you will need to simulate flushing again with a bucket of water before you continue with the cleaning process. Try sprinkling baking soda on the marks before spritzing them with vinegar. Use a soft cleaning rag to work the marks out.
