removing underlay staples from hardwood floor
Please HELP! I am pulling up old carpet and would like to polish the 100 year old boards. The underlay is stapled in about 1000+ places. Every staple I try to remove with pliers keeps breaking and I cannot get the staple out. Is there a better way? Better tool? Will staple bits left behind be a problem when sanding? Thanks, any advice appreciated.
