sanding old adhesive - TilersForums.com

[kingdean1]

Hello Everyone.
Please could somebody give me some advice. My customer has taken some old limestone tiles up because extending floor and need to get adhesive off without hammer and chisel because customer does not want to take chance of damaging ufh. I have a bosch multitool and have seen there is a tool that sands down adhesive and was wondering if anyone has used this and is it any good. Many Thanks

It is a good tool yes, and they do work.. is the cable embedded in the adhesive..

Was there a decoupling membraine used

Thanks for letting me know about the tool. I think the ufh was laid onto screed and then a self leveller put over the top I can just see some of the self leveller through the adhesive so could most probably chip away at it to get down enough to get tiles back in but she does not want me to do this.

You could just use a sanding block with 50 grit paper on..

Many Thanks. Would you suggest getting one of the bosch tools also?
