34 I'd like to talk about Judith Warner from Time magazine who wrote today that Mz Rosen was right and that Ann Romney should STF up.  This is the same Judith that wrote the article blathering on about Obama having sex with her in the shower.  This is the same Judith that was raised by a millionaire and went to the Brearley school (current tuition- 36 thousand per year and some change).  Than off to Brown and marriage to a wealthy guy (school in Paris) who is now an editor at Bloomberg.  Now guess what this elitist woman who wants Ann to STF up did??  Well, she wrote a couple of parenting books of course.

64 With respect to photo ID requirements to vote, there is a simple and effective way to take care of the concerns raised by the left. Change the laws so that non-whites can have photo IDs. It's the laws that forbid minorities from obtaining and carrying driver's licenses and legal ID cards that's the problem. Once this is fixed, I'm sure that the lefties/Democrats will be on board with voters ID laws.

I've got a Q:
I'm just now taking possession of my father's house since he's going to a nursing home, and I've got a list of DIY projects.

The one that's currently stumping me is: Getting glued-on felt squares off a wooden floor, then refinishing that floor.

Any help, links, etc greatly appreciated.

82 #76 I asked Stuck, he said they make all sorts of adhesive removers that will work. He also recommended you rent a steam cleaner or buy a used one from Goodwill. According to my expert, you apply the adhesive remover first. Let it dry, then run the steam cleaner over it and they should come up easily.

Felt squares that are used on furniture feet? Use a brand new paint scraper to work them off and then use a floor sander (pretty much the same thing as a belt sander) to remove the old finish and then stain or finish the floor.

 

That's my best guess having not seen the project.

The one that's currently stumping me is: Getting glued-on felt squares off a wooden floor, then refinishing that floor.

What kind of glue was used? You might try applying warm / hot water to the pads, pad-by-pad, just enough to get the glue to release, or maybe steam from a clothes steamer. Be careful, and do this pad-by-pad, since the wooden floor might try to absorb a lot of moisture and swell or warp.

Are you talking about those self stick 12X12 felt tiles with the black foam-like backing? Or is it just some random squares?

Well either way, a heat gun will soften the glue, a spackle knife will scrape them up, or at least get them off the floor.Depending on the glue, you may get away with denatured alcohol to dissolve the adhesive, if not, lacquer thinner should definitely kick it's ass.

The whole floor is covered with these squares, like a kind of glue on carpet, ...

 

... not 50 or so 1" felt squares, in un-hideable locations.

 

In that case, seriously re-think my steam solution. Perhaps trying with a steam iron, in the remotest corner you can find, is a better idea. Maybe getting one loose will allow the rest to be pealed up. But figuring the floor is 10' x 12', any solution might take far too much time. This might be another exampleof "Don't try this at home" ...

 

Call a professional or two, probably someone who refinishes floors and has been around long enough to remember the 70's, and see what they say. My psychic aura glows bluer at this suggestion ... something about "70's technology home improvement methods"  ... maybe you should call first.

 

The pros may use steam, but being professionals, might have a professional method that works reliably, and leaves the floor in a good state.

Ah, so it is the dreaded 12X12 self stick abominations. Yeah you have to pull them up and then deal with the adhesive thats left behind. lacquer thinner takes no prisoners when it comes to the self stick adhesive. They make a tool, it looks like paint scraper, but on a pole like a broom. That thing usually will shred the tiles and get them up, but you will have to deal with any leftover adhesive. Keep in mind if they are on a hardwood floor you'll want to do the very least amount of damage so the floors won't have to be sanded too much, so be real careful with any spackle knives or pole scrapers.

I have removed every floor known to mankind, I pity you.

Careful those squares might be Vinyl Coated Asbestos Tile or have Asbestos in the mastic gluing it down. Be sure to keep everything moist as you remove the tiles and use a stripping paste to remove the adhesive. Don't dry scrape anything and be sure to wet mop/HEPA vac everything. Just like lead, as long as everything is prevented from generating dust there isn't too much to worry about as long as you clean up well and wear gloves.

231 #234 That all sounds nice. Until you do some reading of your own. The bomb he sold the Israeli's isn't big enough to be used on Iran's nuclear sites. They are buried too deep? We have a bomb that would work but he wouldn't sell them that bomb. The reason he is the first President to veto Palestinian statehood is because he was the first president that ever allowed it to get far enough in the UN to be voted on.

Sorry about that! Stuck to the floor itself.

The guy that built our place in Arkansas built a sort of platform frame and laid heat resistant tile in the section I want to have built in bookcases put in.

Trying to decide if it'd be better to just build out the platform to the entire area....and stub our toes for the rest of our lives. Because I don't think the Pergo stuff is as resilient as wood, right? I mean, if we can pull up the platform, I know I'd have to keep a rug there, but I'm concerned it'll just pull up the flooring with it.

 I drive an old Dodge truck that was dinged up in a hail storm. The steel body held up pretty well and you can only see the dings in the hood if you look at it from a really low angle.

 

There's a couple tiny cracks in the windshield where the golf ball sized hail hit.

Trying to decide if it'd be better to just build out the platform to the entire area....and stub our toes for the rest of our lives. Because I don't think the Pergo stuff is as resilient as wood, right? I mean, if we can pull up the platform, I know I'd have to keep a rug there, but I'm concerned it'll just pull up the flooring with it.""


Thats a tough one MissT. Those pergo type floors are usually some kind of veneer on some type of "other than wood" core. If you try to pull the tiles up it may rip the veneer up, and you would have to be careful not to lift the floor. On the other hand, whatever pattern you have is may still be available, and should be fairly easy to change a section if all else fails. No real easy answers.

 If it were me I wouldn't deal with tripping over a platform too well. I would napalm the whole area and rebuild it. lol

397 For that felt tile floor , I'd be tempted to pull the shoe and baseboard molding and then plywood over the top of the tiles . The lay a new floor of whatever material you want . Stuck is right about making a custom threshold for an elevation change from room to room . You need access to a table saw so you can rip angles the length of the new threshold . Cut kind of a dado into the bottom of thethreshold piece to make the transition into the thicker floor . Also cut the new threshold piece a little long so you can play around with the fine cuts necessary to butt the threshold and the door jamb and the door stop on each side of the doorway . If you decide to strip the tile floor ,,,, poor bastard .

Does it matter that there is no doorway or rooms or anything? Open floor plan.  It'd just be coming out into the middle of the floor, hence the tripping issue.

Pneumatic floor staplers can be tricky. You have to hit it just right and at the right angle.

 

Other than that, laying a wood floor is tongue and groove, pretty much common sense work. And it looks really nice when finished!

It comes out best when you have the lady requesting said floor help you decide how to place the boards.  Of course you know you stagger the lengths but the color can have a slight variation too so you don't want a patch of color when you are done so she can yell, cause she will.  Instead you want to spread the off color boards throughout the floor so it looks deliberate.  Trust me, any woman who tells you to "just lay the floor".....doesn't realize that she wants input and the wise male worker bee encourages said in put up front so whatever happens, however it turns out, it's been a joint effort.
