    Ok i tried this with a husky "bent 3" chisel scraper stiff" (which i think is over level cheaper than what you have there?) and it couldn't get out some nails, started getting beat up with dings in it. Also the top is plastic and started screwing off. Also a quinn multi purpose (stiff) from harbor freight, which started to die... Maybe my nails are in tougher? :)

    Thank you. I have a basement that occasionally gets a little water so I’m not replacing carpet that got wet. I’m gonna paint the concrete a cute color and put down a nice area rug that I can pull up when big rains threaten to flood.

    Put that scraper on a poll. You can do it standing up.

    Been a long time since I left a comment but I had to in order to say THANK YOU, we struggled for hours getting these out in our first room and anticipated many hours of pain going into the second room. I got a 3" scraper and we knocked it out in 30 minutes using this method and didn't crack any of the tack and didn't have any massive holes to fill. This worked better than a crowbar (we tried everything).

    I use a crowbar, but yea. What do you do about concrete chipping from the nails and the holes the nails leave?

      Spade shovel works better cause it has a point to wedge under.

    Well, this doesn’t work if they used a sh@#*load of liquid nails.
