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.

Both the tiles and cuttback adhesive probably are asbetsos based but
to be honest - so what? Do you know how much it would cost to have
someone come in and do the exact same thing that you are going to do?
With the stuff being wet - after you apply the solvent to it - it
ain't going anywhere.
