Hi,

any way to remove lino from a concrete floor? Would a steamer work? or some kind of chemical stripper?

thanks,
J

A spade?
Lino will repel water vapour, unless the heat has any effect on the bonding...

yep, a spade is your only man, especially if its glued!! i spent 2 or 3 hours hacking away on lino tiles did the job nicely.. strippers and steamers are not worth a cod..
