Re: removal of painted cork floor

Hello @DMAD 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your cork floor.

 

I recommend using a DTA 150mm Heavy Duty Floor Scraper in combination with a Full Boar 1050W 7kg SDS Max Demolition Hammer Kit. You do have the option of using a non-motorized tool such as the DTA 150mm Heavy Duty Floor Scraper, but it will take longer and require more effort. The general steps are to begin at a corner and work your way through the cork floor in sections. My best advice is to scrape the floor with enough force but not overdoing it to prevent damaging the floor itself.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know. 

 

Eric
