Best way to remove ceramic floor tile - preserve hardwood floor underneath.

So could residue if it isn't completely removed/sanded off before applying a new finish.

I washed the floor in mineral spirits after to stop the stripping process and neutralize any remaining chemical.

That is great it worked nicely. You were working with methylene chloride (60-100%) by MSDS of the Klean Strip. One less chloride to its brother chloroform without the knockout...and a very good solvent. Eat and drink very clean for the next few days to give your liver a break. Its also the main component in most paint strippers.

Cool, glad that worked so well. Pretty sure it's concrete under mine from where a tile broke at the corner, but who knows what will be under the main area.
