    Sealer and Adhesive Remover
    We've lived in our 1965 home for 20 years and recently discovered that terrazzo was beneath some lenolium floor covering in the hallway and baths. We wish to return to the original terrazzo covering but expect that there will be dried glue left on the terrazzo when we remove the lenolium. Someone recommended Jasco Sealer and Adhesive Remover but we are concerned about (further?) damage to the terrazzo. Would appreciate suggestion/recommendations by anyone having experience on this subject. Specifically, is the Jasco Sealer and Adhesive Remover OK for use on terrazzo?

    Your terrazzo may be concrete or epoxy based but Jasco should be fine. Terrazzo is nonporous and can withstand almost any solvent. If you are concerned test it in a small hidden spot first. You should thoroughly clean and seal the terrazzo when done.

    Appreciate your kind reply, ballergerb1. Your answer is consistent with the response I received from a Jasco representative but I wanted to get the input of an outside expert as well. Your suggestion about testing a small hidden spot first is well taken.
