[VAC] My tile tale!

["My Airstream" <myairstream@xxxxxxx>]

Armstrong also makes a highly textured industrial grade tile called "Safety
Zone".  I find it to be perfect for my Safari.  When I pulled up the old
asbestos tiles the glue that held them was tired and worn out.  The tiles
came up like butter with only a scraper.

We didn't even sand the subfloor.  Just made sure there was no protruding
material and then "floated" the floor using a thick paste.  After a day to
dry it was a very tight flat surface and the 12x12 tiles went down smooth
and tight.

I did not pull my cabinets or couches.  In fact I cut the old tile at the
edge of the supporting wood.  My fear was that loosening the screws could
weaken the integrity of their installation.
