Has anyone come up with a secret sauce recipe for removing 56 year old Glue from the floorboards?

Couldn't find anything in the search.
I'm thinking 3M adhesive remover (spendy), Acetone,

I just read somewhere Behr sells an adhesive remover...which I'm thinking will be cheaper than 3M.

I'm half considering brakeclean..lol

Thoughts?

I would try a little bit of GOOF OFF. Small container for a sample. If it’s that old, should be brittle and scrape off. Probably if you tried a heat gun it might turn to goo.
You didn’t mention inside or outside. I assume inside, don’t know of any glue on the outside.
 
Got a picture of what you’re trying to remove? I’m trying to think what would have been glued to a floor board.
 
OEM 1969 Jute Carpet Pad was glued down to the floorpans. I just removed the original carpet. It's that yellow tinge....those floors are showing original B3 paint

Goo Gone, the automotive version.
It removes undercoating as well.
Let it soak in.
 
A decent high octane race gas works very well
