Rotozip will grind the edges, the cutting bit is 1/8" in diameter. I would go with the hand tools or Fein. There is one more tool I have in mind and I will send you a link to their side when I get back home tonight.

I have a very large job consisting of 83 rooms of white carrara marble that has 40 year old non sanded grout, the job consists of restoration and re-grouting of all marble in the guest rooms, shower walls, 1 vanity, and the floor. 1 room has been completed as a control sample and approved by custy. The wall grout was a issue, a hand grout tool was skipping over the grout, we had to use our Fein tool to remove the wall grout which took more time than I wanted. Has anyone used a different tool or method for removing stubborn non sanded grout?
