Anyway, need to remove the carpet glue, will try the HD Citristrip. Any tips on use? Does it need to stay on a while? Then, I assume scrape off the residue?
I'm using POR-15 when completed.

I pulled out the carpets from my '74, had them professionally cleaned, and glued them back in with 3M spray adhesive "74" (ironically). While the carpets were out I removed the sound deadening asphalt, sanded and repaired rust, coated with POR-15. Then I glued in foam-backed mass-loaded vinyl sound killer, and glued the carpet over that.
The results are fine. I experienced no stretching of the carpet and it fit back in nicely. To get the old carpet glue off I used 3M general purpose adhesive remover.
