| January 17, 2009 - I've been given varying advice on how best to remove the asphalt. Freeze it with dry ice so it shatters, warm it with a heat gun and use a putty knife, and melt it off with various chemical cocktails. I stuck by my original plan and picked up a $4.50 air hammer from Harbor Freight. It was the perfect tool for the job, ripping out the stuff in no time flat. This picture was taken partway through the work. entry 146 - tags: floor, sound deadening, tools |
