How do I remove rubber based cement

[dazzystar]

Hi all,

I'm taking up my old kitchen floor tiles which were laid on rubber based cement as it is a wooden floor underneath. I'm now left with an awful mess of rubber based cement which I need to remove as much of as possible to lay new tiles. What is the best and quickest method of removal?

Thanks in advance
Daz

try a heavy-duty wallpaper or artex stripping tool, the 4" type with replaceable blades

A wire wheel on a side grinder will take care of of problem ( you would be advised to wear breathing protection ).
