Reply to comment by sti-wrx in Removing mastic while preserving hardwood floors underneath? by SummitWanderer

Mask up with a good mask, get a couple cheap disposable protective "onesies" online, put plastic sheeting on everything you don't want dust on/in, and create negative pressure with a box fan in an open window. Keep dust down with a spray bottle with water in it. Wear your worst clothing and toss it in the trash. Shower when you're done. It's not hard or expensive to be safe.

Thanks! Have the Tyvek suits already and a p100 respirator. Also already have 6mil plastic sheeting on site due to a separate clean up issue ( mice 😞 )

Don’t forget to toss your respirator filters after you complete the work.
