Removing old carpet glue

[rage]

I am tearing out the old carpet on my galaxy and am having trouble getting the old glue off the deck. Is there a "magic" chemical that will work better than scraping this all off. I know it will be hidden again but i hate to scratch the glass.

i'm wondering the same thing as i'll be replacing the carpet in mine shortly. i'm going to check out home depot to see if there's antything available to at least soften this stuff up so it can be scraped off.

A rag soaked with lacquer thinner and lots of elbow grease....if it starts to soften the glass...rest awhile...

Re: Removing old carpet glue

west marine sold me a spray (small bottle) for 5.99 that promises to eat up any type of glue, including tough marine glue. I used it to loosen up a board that had been bonded in manyyeears ago. in 5 minutes it was free. the stuff works. sorry i dont have the name, but stop in, they'll know what your asking for
