Thereof, how do you remove old tile adhesive?
Begin by scraping as much up as possible with a putty knife. If it is hard and unyielding, soften it by applying heat. Aim a heat gun at the adhesive, or hold an iron a few inches above it; never place a hot object directly on the glue. Wait a few minutes for it to begin to soften, then scrape up what remains.
