I have a bunch of self adhesive tiles that I need to place on a concrete floor. Little did I realize that there was a surface of paint. It is virtually the same color as the concrete (beats me why, but anyways). I placed a tile on the floor and shifted it only to find that it came up easily...with the adhesive side of the tile covered in chipped paint.
How do I remove this paint, easily?

Hi there,
You can probably try wiping the wall surface with a thinner-soaked cloth.

You could always rent a floor sander. It would only take a "touch" from that to remove the paint. Wear a dust mask.
