NEYC, I have looked for the attachement you refered to for the skid steer, but cant find it. I would be interested in picking it up if it will work. After talking to the GC some more the last few days, as long as I can get a majority of the mastic up, then just the friction from the loader, JCB, lifts, peoples feet, etc should be enough to clean the floor of the majority of the mastic before the new carprt goes in. They have done a bunch of these stores before and said thats what has been done before and worked well.

He also said tonight that they wanted an alternate on leaving the flooring in place and putting the new floor down on top of it. He suggested not doing this, but he can only give them what they ask for. I told him I cant gurantee the condition of the old floor once I am done, and that more than likely it will be pretty much destroyed.
