Try soaking with warm soapy water and then use a hard clothe to scrape the rest off. be careful though not to scratch the floor.


Good luck
Try goof off. But before you do that test it out in a small area just to make sure it isnt going to damage the floor, preferably in a hidden area.
If this is true laminate flooring (with an HPL face), then you can use acetone, or some finger nail polish removers (many contain acetone). Don't soak it... because if the acetone gets below the laminate, it will cause the glue to release. Just apply it to a disposable rag, and wipe at the nail varnish.





But if this is a wood veneer laminate, you're probably going to end up replacing the boards to get rid of it... as anything that will remove the nail varnish will also strip the wood finish.





It simply amazes me how many times I see questions about how to remove nail polish from various surfaces on here... you'd think folks would learn how to handle the stuff after awhile, but apparently not, hehehe.





Oh.. when you're done with the acetone rag, take it outside and soak it in a container of water. Acetone is very flammable -- no smoking while working on this, hehehe.





Good Luck
Try mineral spirits, it should not harm the flooring.
use dilute acetone (nail paint remover)





dont rub too much.. or it might spoil ur flooring.
my daughter did this on her floor so i rubbed it with my sock while it was still on my foot and it came off!!


Easy peasy!!!
