    Removing carpet

    Has anyone tried the goo gone in a spray bottle and sprayed the whole carpet down to remove in on piece. I would like to try this just seeing if anyone had done it before. I know MEK will work but is not to good for your health. Any options would be great.

    if your gonna use a product like that WD or Liquid wrench work just as good, just gotta let it sit a bit and scrape. Acetone and MEK work much faster but you have the fumes. Wire wheel and angle grinder works good too.
