The best way to remove carpet glue from concrete is with acetone. Acetone is strong enough to melt carpet glue; all you need to do is put some acetone in a dish, dip a brush into it, and scrub the concrete until the carpet glue comes off. You can use any acetone you already have in your house, but if you have to buy more, then we recommend Super Nail Pure Acetone Polish Remover because it is pure acetone at a reasonable price. Make sure the room you do this in is well-ventilated because acetone fumes can be harmful to breathe.
How to Remove Carpet Glue from Concrete with a Scraper
Another great way to remove carpet glue from concrete is with a scraper. For this method, you will want to pour boiling water onto the concrete to loosen for a few minutes and then scrape. We recommend using Red Devil Long Handle Heavy Duty Scraper. The Red Devil Long Handle Heavy Duty Scraper has a long handle that will keep you from hurting your back, and the heavy-duty aspect of it will be able to hold up to the challenge of scraping up even the most caked-on carpet glue.
How to Remove Carpet Glue from Concrete
- The first step is to scrape the floor dry to try and get as much of the glue off as you can.
- From there, you can pour boiling water onto the remaining glue to soften it. Let the water sit for a few minutes.
- After the water has sat for a few minutes, you can scrape the floor to get the next layer of glue off. After you have gotten what you can off, then clean up the floor and let it dry.
- After the floor dries, then you can apply the glue remover of your choice and use it to scrub off the rest of the glue.
- When all the glue is scrubbed off, sand the floor, so you get a nice, fresh surface to lay new carpet or flooring.
How to Remove Carpet Glue from Concrete with Concrete Cleaner
Using concrete cleaner is a very efficient way to remove carpet glue from a concrete floor, but it is definitely a harsher way to go about it, and you will need a very well-ventilated room. We recommend using Simple Green Oxy Solve for this method because it is less harsh than other concrete cleaners, so it will be safer to use indoors. Simple Green Oxy Solve can be used with boiling water to break down the glue before scraping it up.
How to Remove Carpet Glue from Concrete with WD-40
The harshest but fastest way to remove carpet glue from concrete is with WD-40. Carpet glue will come off concrete very quickly with WD-40. For this method, make sure all the windows are open, there are no children around, and that you wear rubber gloves. You can put WD-40 onto the glue directly, let it sit for a few minutes, and then it should wipe away with little to no scraping needed.
Any of these methods for removing carpet glue from concrete will work; just choose the one that you like the sound of the best, and if you like, you can try more than one.
Yes, you can try using boiling water and scraping up the glue. It is a longer and more difficult method, but it will work if you are patient and put your back into scraping.
No, Super Nail Pure Acetone Polish Remover doesn’t have any fragrances or any other additives; it is 100% pure acetone.
No, there are 4 or 5 blade options for Red Devil Long Handle Heavy Duty Scraper, some sharper and others duller.
Yes, Simple Green Oxy Solve is a hydrogen-peroxide-based cleaner, so it can neutralize odors from concrete while it cleans up glue as well.
No, absolutely not. WD-40 should not be used anywhere it will come into direct or indirect contact with food.
