Post Patching Hydroturf
Have some bare areas on the hydroturf floor that need patching, I am using leftover pieces of the same. What is the best solvent to remove the residue/turf? I used Weldwood contact cement on the application to the aluminum floor. Thank you!

The only time I've ever messed with taking it up I used a coarse wire wheel on an angle grinder. Stripped it down to the bare aluminum in a hurry, but made a hell of a mess lol.

Maybe a plastic polishing wheel on a die grinder for a small area. You k ow the round wheel for a die grinder that's got plastic teeth

It's simple. get a mud motor. shoot ducks in the face.

Gasoline or Goo-Gone with a putty knife for a small area- Gasoline is hard to control and can compromise the glue under the existing turf too.
