[QUOTE="El_Guapo, post: 359846, member: 14055"] You're gonna want to get rid of as much of the old adhesive as you can, especially the stuff with the carpet backing stuck in it - peel and stick adhesives don't like high spots in the surface, so you'll end up with air pockets that don't stick. A wire wheel on an angle grinder will make pretty short work of it. Before you put your new flooring in, give the whole thing a good wiping down with acetone or automotive wax/grease remover.
