How do you get small spots of latex paint off of vinyl floors?

And wood floors too?How do you get small spots of latex paint off of vinyl floors?
latex paint usually just scrapes right off of a vinyl or wooden floor. please do not use goo gone or any of that other stuff, it will remove your finish and any kind of a scarper or chisel will scratch it. if it is a latex primer / undercoater it may not so easily. try a rag or sponges with some hot water. if that doesn't work use some methyl hydrate [ gasline antifreeze ]How do you get small spots of latex paint off of vinyl floors?
Try ';GooGone'; and an old tee shirt. On wood floors you must be careful to rub lightly or you will damage the finish.


On wood you could try a small very sharp chisel. Just scrape the latex paint off and avoid marring the surface.
TSP available at hardware stores and a razor blade
They should just scrape off! My spots i scrape with my finger nail!
