I have 10k sq ft of floor I need to remove the tile mastic from. I have been itching to use the dry ice blaster, but I want to be realistic. Does anyone know if Dry Ice blasting would do it efficiently? Any idea how many sq ft per hour could be covered with Dry Ice Blast?

Any other solution along with amount of time involved? Anyone? Give me a call (615.365.1000) or post here. I need to be able to start on Friday if possible. I'll post pictures if it works out. Thanks!

Solvent and hot water. Makes a mess, but works..... Kind of.

Always wanted to see a dry ice demo.

They had one at the pw convention in Nashville. Pretty sweet but they didnt use it on mastic. My customer has a bid for some sort of bead blasting. Someone already tried solvent and caused a problem where new glue won't adhere.
 
Hey George how ya doing? On your mastic removal, in all my years of commercial construction the most common observed three methods for removing mastic are,
1. scraping
2.solvent
3.grinding
But if you want to give me a call later this afternoon I will give you another method that isnt as common but will work.
Oh yeah I have a new number 217-722-7227

I am doing good. I had tried calling your old number. I forgot about grinding. Lets talk. I will be in your area tomorrow. You busy? Maybe lunch?
