how should we know, best ask adhesive maker
Hi Marc,
if it is old linoleum or vinyl then its probably an acrylic or cement bond adhesive...neither of which should not react with your new adhesive. But just to be on the safe side you might be better applying a skim coat of latex screed ( or lay 4mm construction grade plywood if its a timber floor ) to give you a fresh start.
The adhesive manufacturers always state that you should lay onto a 'clean' subfloor...so if you lay on your old adhesive you hand then a get-out-clause.
