Q: What dissolves linoleum adhesive?

• <div><p>Linoleum adhesive is quite stubborn, so you may have to try several different methods for removal. You can start with a wallpaper steamer and steam it off or add laundry detergent to water and let it soak into the adhesive. You can try paint thinner directly on the adhesive for about 10 minutes and then wipe away.</p></div>

Q: How do you remove paint and grout from tiles?

• <div><p>While the above methods will help you remove paint from tiles, you may need to take a different approach to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-remove-grout-haze.htm">get rid of grout haze</a>. If you&rsquo;ve recently applied the grout, you may be able to wipe it off with a wet cloth. Otherwise, you can try removing it with a rubber grout float, spraying it with a mixture of four parts water to one part vinegar, or using a store-bought grout haze remover.</p></div>

Q: How do I remove paint from metal?

• <div><p>Using a wire brush, forcefully scrub the surface to remove paint from metal. You&rsquo;ll want to remove any lingering rust, too. For larger areas with caked-on rust, you may need to use a wire brush drill attachment. If the paint still won&rsquo;t budge, apply a chemical paint stripper to the area and scrape off the paint, after following the paint stripper&rsquo;s instructions.</p></div>

Q: Can I paint over peeling paint?

• <div><p>Sometimes you can get away with simply sanding and painting over small areas of peeling paint. However, the problem will likely return quickly, and the ridge between old and new paint will be visible. If you just need a quick fix and won't worry about appearance, chip away the peeling paint as much as possible, prime and paint the area, and skip the spackle step. </p></div>

Q: Can paint thinner and mineral spirits be used interchangeably?

• <div><p>Technically, mineral spirits are a type of paint thinner, so they can be used for the same purposes. In most cases, pure mineral spirits are preferable to other paint thinners. Still, if necessary, you can successfully use paint thinners for most of the same applications, such as thinning or cleaning oil paints.</p></div>

Ken was easy to work with. It went exactly as he described (even down the the verbage). Friendly and courteous, and on time. The key feature was his unlimited weight capacity for the dumpster, other quotes had limitations. Ended up getting a 30yrd dumpster for less than a quoted 20yrd dumpster...
