Glue removal on resi

[Hoss]

It also depends on the glue stick used. If it is a low-temperature glue stick, you might be able to use heat to soften it and pull it out if the melting point/softening point is less than the carpet fibers. A hot-knife and a good hot-melt glue gun are nice little tools to have. I use glue sticks to repair seams and fraying in commercial carpeting along with a carpet seam roller. It works very well and although it creates a strong adhesion and stops fraying, it does not melt the fiber.
