It did until I figured out that if you add a little bit of hot water, it comes right up. Of course that wasn't until about 5 hours in. As you can see in the video. If did help out when I had to do my bathroom. Same vinyl... Same process. And again. No asbestos. I checked with the flooring company.
I HATE TO SAY THIS, BUT YOUR BACKING CONTAINED ASBESTOS, AND YOU WERE NOT EVEN WEARING A RESPIRATOR! YOU MORE THAN LIKELY INHALED A GREAT DEAL OF ASBESTOS. DID YOU GET THE FLOORING TESTED? YOUR WHOLE HOUSE IS NOW A TOXIC SITE. I AM SORRY FOR YOU.
Nope to the garden hoe. i tried that. Not as easy as it would seem.

It's a concrete slab. The contractor I questioned recommended that I completely clear the floor then put the tile on top of slab.

Um. Yeah. Right. The house is only 12 years old. There is not asbestos in it. It was all paper and vinyl.
