It's overkill, if all you are trying to do is get the glue off. If you want to do it to promote adhesion of the new paint, then it's a good idea. I'm in a different end of the country than you, so what it costs here may be quite a bit different but here it would cost the better part of a grand, to do it right.

Try a scraper to see how well the glue is stuck, and how "dry" it is. If it's too hard to scrape, or it is still pretty tacky, call a flooring company that does commercial work and get an estimate for them to scrape it off and sand the floor for you. With their equipment, it's less than an hour's work.
