Whatever you do - don't sand if it's tacky. You'll just clog the sander
(been there, done that). White spirit or petrol (or some other solvent)
may work - soak rags in the solvent, cover a relatively small area and
put some plastic sheeting on top to avoid evaporation. Leave for a few
hours, then scrape.
I suppose we might have expected a DIY Banter contributor to advocate
leaving petrol-soaked rags lying around the house ...
A Nitromors type stripper is the only way
afaik
. Flooring adhesive
usually has a pretty volatile solvent so won't respond to anything less.
Similar to Gripfil I think.
