That HT cant be stuck that bad. But then again we tear up floors for part of our living. lol
I once had to tear up carpet in a school gym in 3" wide strips with a polaris 700 4-wheeler. That shit was stuck!

On how to remove Hydroturf? I need to replace the Hydroturf on the floor of my boat, and man it is a biatch to get off. I worked for about an hour to scrape it off, and I got half od the front section of the floor off. I probably lost three pounds of water weight while doing it! Just curious if anybody has any bright ideas... |

Heat will loosen the adhesive up. Dont just set in on fire. lol Get a good stiff 3 to 4" putty knife. |

Just pull off and scrape of what you can. If it leaves pieces don't worry about it. Get a hard sponge looking paint stripping wheel that will fit on a drill and get to work. It'll burn some of the foam from friction but it'll get it down smooth to recover with new turf. I would suggest good music on your mp3 player, a nice shade tree and a cooler of beers. Tapatalk 2 |

It just tears into little pieces. The sacraper will get underneath it, and with enough force and time you can scrape it off , but it still leaves a residue. I am going to have to sand it down after I get it off. Don't put this shit down if you want to take it off. |

Take the sub floor out and turn it over the rivet it back down. Maybe a flat shovel. |

I would think a good wire wheel would clean up and of the residue. |

I tried one. Liked the paint wheel a little better. Both of em cause enough friction to get the smearing effect of the turf that was really stuck good. Tapatalk 2 |
