How to save these 100 year old floors with tar adhesive?
Hi Reddit gang. My fiance and I are trying to get to the point of refinishing these 100 year old wood floors in our newly rented retail space. After removing multiple layers of flooring we are trying to figure out the smartest way to remove what seems like tar adhesive. So far we’ve been chiseling as much as we can but that alone will not get it ready for sanding. I’d love to get some input on whether or not this is a realistic project for us. We’re working on a smaller budget so I can’t pay a professional for this part, but I feel like these would be so beautiful if given the right attention and I’d rather not cover them if I have another option. submitted by /u/Agitated-Reading-538 [link] [comments]
