Default How to remove old black lino tile backing from pine floor before sanding?

In the good old days, EVERYTHING was made of asbestos!!

Home Depot also carries a solvent to break up the old
black cutback glue. Works OK and smells like hell.

Its going to be a project that's for sure, just make sure to get it
all out before someone comes in there to sand down those pine floors.

Get those window fans going and wear that mask!

Actually it is probably the old asphalt tile, and does
not have any asbestos in it. That was what they put
down with the black tar.
