    Would like to remove glue from a concrete floor.

    Office floor has old carpet tiles that were glued to the concrete floor.

    Would appreciate any advice on how to remove this from a floor area of 1500sqft?

    Thanks

    Why do you need to remove it?

    What’s getting put down next?

    As BryanF suggests you may not need to remove it at all depending on what's replacing the carpet.

    If you do need to remove it, a few manual floor scrapers and elbow grease should do the job or a scraping bit with a kango. Any other type of mechanical removal like the spinning scrapers etc. might just heat the glue up and make the job harder and messier.
