Chemical cleaners and solvents, ranging from bio-based agents (like citrus, soy, or limonene) to hydrocarbon or chlorinated solvents, are occasionally used to strip old adhesives or coatings from flooring substrates. However, these cleaners can penetrate into the concrete substrate, leaving behind residues that are not always visible or detectable immediately. These substances are strongly discouraged by many manufacturers, including Lighthouse Adhesives.
