I am "guessing" that the stripper might work on the adhesive also. You could try it on a small section to see.
Good timing on my question then! This is inside (not a garage) so I don't know if powerwashing is a good idea. I don't want to wreck everything else around with the water. I thought about a floor grinder as well. But I wanted to see about other options first. Maybe the paint stripper alone and a scraper might work? It would be sweet if it is water based!
