Help please! How do I remove things that are stuck to my floor?

Try plain whit toothpaste.

Have you tried WD40? I used it recently to get some stickers off of our floor..

It may help on the labor side: I use a nylon kitchen scrubbie sponge, stand on it and rub 'stickys' off using my foot. Gives more pressure that way.

How about Goo Gone? It safely removes sticky residue. Also you may want to try lemon or vinegar.

I go for Goo Gone or WD40.

Use Goo Gone or vegetable oil. I put some on a cloth and lay it over what you want off. I let it sit for 20 minutes so it can soak into the residue. Then I take a clean cloth and wipe away. I have used Goo Gone for stickers on a dresser to gum on shoes. I love it and it does not discolour, where lemon juice might.

Use anything greasy like as already suggested WD40 or even PAM for cooking.

Spray heavily on the glue and allow to sit a few minutes then work the gunk off with a plastic putty knife.

I once got a $100. tip from a client for removing heavy residue from duct tape from their hardwood floors! I sprayed the residue with PAM and proceded as above.

Goo Gone - best stuff ever

Coconut oil is my go to for anything stuck anywhere. Make a paste of coconut oil and baking soda, let sit 5 to 15 mins. and wipe off. repeat if needed. Even glue from labels removes easily without scrubbing. Have even used this on our new car without damaging the surface.

For scuff marks from rubber soled shoes, use an eraser. For all other ditr on my laminate floors, I use a vinegar and water solution..

Thanks for all the tips!! Extremely helpful!

99% alcohol is good to remove greasy sticky stuff. Also to remove the good gone.

Try using one of the Mr. Clean erasers, or a scotch brite pad.

Hand sanitizer.. the alcohol gets rid of all sorts of sticky things, from glass, lino, wood, etc....

Soak in some kind of oil first for about 20 minutes.Take a putty knife,test an area first,then gently scrape.I have had no issues using this method.

I have alawys had great luck with a bit of acetone on a small cloth and wipe away

put some ice on it, or a cold pack.

Use a plastic putty knife after treating with Goo B Gone or household oil. Or even peanut butter.

I too use Mr. Clean magic eraser. However, you can use Undo. You can get it at Michaels or hobby lobby and then you can use the 40% off coupon

Eucalyptus oil gets rid of sticky stuff, try it it worked for me. Good luck

WD 40

I use orange oil, which by the way is so great on furniture, spray a bit, leave the bottle beside the spot as a marker so no one slips, wait about 10-15 min, use plastic scraper and poly scrub pad, nothing metal, wipe off with window cleaner to get rid of the "slip" and your done

I would use anyone of the cleaning methods that have been presented and then I would use a good sealer like the manufacture suggest.

No joking, have you tried WD40?

Straight edge razor

simple green

I'm just throwing this out there. Either use baby oil or some type of oil. That usually gets rid of sticky. Or try liquid gold. that would maybe also give your floor a shine. But then again it could make it slippery.

Murphy Oil Soap often works well for me.

Yep no kidding WD-40 then wash the floor or area with warm soapy water and rinse well don't forget to wash the oil or spray off the floor or you'll slip on your butt

Ain't but two things in my toolbox. WD-40 and a roll of Duct Tape. Iffen it moves an it ain't supposed to, use the tape and iffen it don't move but is supposed to use the WD-40.

"That's the Redneck way"

I'm in Florida, Publix and Walgreens both have, it but so does Walmart who everyone has, it's in the furniture polishes, its a golden liquid ,the label says Orange Glo and it's so fresh smelling. Ggreat on furniture as designed but removes labels, sticky gunk, marker writing in most cases, does some things a Mr Clean Magic Eraser does, makes shoes or boots look fresh and shiny, when you're done everything shines and smells like a fresh orange (lemon oil gives me a headache, orange doesn't) Good luck, at least I know you'll love the product.

If its bubble gum or something like that you get some ice-blocks out of freezer and place it on top of what's on the floor and if it is going to work it will harden it up and after about 5 minutes remove the ice and it should peel off, Depends what it is on the floor. But good luck.

Hi Leah, hope this helps you. Goo gone is the bees knees when it comes to sticky messes like tar and glue. Hope it helps you out.
