Especially if you go the tile route. Removing that glue in preparation for tile can be tricky (don't use chemicals etc.).

Either way, there are some very experienced floor people who can steer you in the right direction with choices.

Checking at the home center or even a tile store can be reaallllly hit or miss.

The john Bridge forum is super friendly too! (not that DU isn't).
