    Take a bit of it to your local hardware and see if they know which solvent to use, otherwise scrap it off, Nick

    Was the carpet glued all over or just a bit of glue to keep the underlay in place, got any pics?

    If its anything like the glue underneath vinyl tiles then we used turps and a scraper 80 % has come off another coat may get more and then the sander should finish it off.

    See the next post Told my floor can't be sanded for some recommendations given for a similar problem, my solution is #16.
    The first step towards knowledge is to know that we are ignorant.
