Removing old carpet adhesive from a concrete floor.
Digressing from journalism for a while. I am trying to remove underfelt adhesive from a concrete floor. The previous carpet layer glued foam sheet to the floor. I've managed to remove the foam, scraping it off with a sharp shovel, but how on earth do I remove the adhesive. Apparently, it must be removed prior to laying new carpet.
Tried scraping and sanding. Short of a heat gun producing toxic fumes any ideas on the best way to remove this stuff.
Anyone had experience with this.
EDIT: Angle grinder makes too much dust.
Regards,
Rowland.
