  • Removing and cleaning up the sticky residue left behind from peel and stick tiles is miserable...until now. Quick way to get the job done. If needed repeat a bit in a spot. Have fun! (VERY SORRY for all of the annoying noises as I am filming this....I didn't realize that my movements were causing such a sound....this is my first attempt at recording and I had to share this so please look past that part of the video.) Thanks for watching...give thumbs up if you like!

    I had a peel and stick tile in my kitchen break and I pulled it off impulsively, only to find the dreaded adhesive underneath, boy was it hard to peel that tile off! That was months ago. It has been an ugly sticky square of exposed hardwood in my kitchen, and I didn’t know what to do! I thought I’d never get that adhesive off. Then I watched this video and immediately got out the WD40 and flour. It worked!! Thank you for this effective and cheap tip! Thank you for recording it for all to see and hear! I now have the confidence to pull up the rest of those tiles in my kitchen! (It will take forever to pull them up, you are right about that being the most laborious and dreadful part)

    OMG!! Thank you for this video! No other video should be uploaded and give advise on how to remove stick and peel residue. YOURS IS THE ANSWER! I Had used up all my elbow grease trying to scrub off the residue with adhesive remover and chemical wash-wasting my money and time!! This was advised by a contractor! And then I gave up after spending 30mins scrubbing and scraping off my tiles. So THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! I sprayed WD40 and it worked immediately!! I’m ecstatic!

    8 days ago I told you how wonderful your video was for me to see. Today I am here to tell you that your method is not only wonderful IT IS FANTASTIC. I tried it our today after removing 4 of the. Self stick planks. Got the WD40 with the blast spray top to cover a wider area. Sprayed the area and after 5-6 minutes sprinkled with flour and used my long handle floor scraper and all the WD40 was absorbed and the residue removed with ease for me to simply sweep up. I can’t thank you enough. I was really fretting about the necessity to remove this flooring. Your method makes it a piece of cake. Looking forward to remover the remainder of the flow now that I know how easy and quick it it. You’re the best for sharing this process.

    I have tried everything to get this stubborn adhesive residue off the ceramic tile floor underneath. This was the only thing that worked! I tried goo gone, goof off, heat gun, hand sanitizer even. The video was not the best quality, but the solution is ideal! Thanks for this, I will def pass along.

    I wonder if this would work on plywood subfloor? Also wondering if it would mess up the mortar mix for my new porcelain tiles? We're removing old porcelain to replace with new in front of a fireplace...and removing peel and stick linoleum to replace with carpet tiles.

    • @Iamhiswitnessishere
      @Iamhiswitnessishere  11 місяців тому

      I’m by no means an expert on sub flooring but I wouldn’t be afraid to try it. I would think I the flour would absorb all the oil. I personally would try it. At least in a small area to test if I had concerns. Please let me know if you do it and how it worked. Good luck with your project 😊

    • @Iamhiswitnessishere
      @Iamhiswitnessishere  11 місяців тому

      Hello. Yes I have a glove on but it actually is to protect my nails.
      Just spray the w-d and swirl it in to melt the adhesive then apply the flour to finish the cleanup.
      Good luck. Gloves are up to you. :)

    I have a question though I am going to have to take up a engineered hardwood floor ( sadly my refrigerator leaked and ruined a section and that color is discontinued 😢). My question is will using wd40 on a subfloor work or would it absorb too much and affect it so my next flooring would not adhere afterwards? Just a thought.

    • @Iamhiswitnessishere
      @Iamhiswitnessishere  Рік тому

      I honestly can’t answer that for sure. I would think the flour should absorb it up if left on long enough out of the wood but I really don’t know. Let me know if you try it and if it worked for you.
      Good luck on your project 😊
