hope you used cement board for the walls by the bathtub. it'll extend the life of your wall.
And update on the tiling issue. I decided to chisel the tiles off. That was the easy part but removing the polymer based grout & mortar they used were a big ol' pain. The thing was pretty much glue. I was on the verge of replacing the whole wall until I had an idea this morning.
I sprayed the wall with water, let the plaster soak it up.. Wouldn't you know, the grout pealed off pretty easily.
