Dry stuff might come up using a paint scraper and a little elbow grease to chip or flake it off.
The wood is finished and the finish is in pretty good shape.

I'm going to guess that the carpet was put down maybe 10-15 years ago. It seems like high quality stuff too. The padding seems denser and better than most padding that I've pulled up and the carpet is also a higher quality carpet than most. The glue is definitely not going to flake off. It's still tacky in spots, it seems thin, and maybe a little gooey.
