I have a similar problem, in that I purchased a mosaic patio table set that has deteriorated. The ceramic tiles have all cracked and flaked off on the table. How can I go about repairing it? Do I need to completely remove the original grout? Is there a book that could help me through this process. This is a new project for me, but I am sure that it can be done.

Which post were you refering to Cynthia?
