fake floor is made of M.D.F. it will come up no problem. dont use stripper itll take the shine off it. sounds daft but when youve got the thick of it up use coca cola for the fiddly bits in the grooves with a hard tooth brush.I have spilt lots of paint on my fake wooden floor! how do i get rid of the paint without damaging the floor?
I swear don't laugh but window cleaner works great for removing dried paint ,wet paint.....
if emulsion then hot soapy water should do it ..................... if gloss then turps followed by a wash should do it. Good luck
It depends on what type of paint. Any latex paint should come up easily with hot water. Take a towel with hot water on it, wring it out. Allow the towel to sit on the paint for a minute or two to soften it. Then scrape the floor gently (very, very gently so you don't scratch it!) with a putty knife, and watch the paint peel back! If it's a thick layer, you may be able to grab ahold of an end and peel.





If any remains in crevices, you may gently use a steel wool pad to help catch the little bits on the edges and in the ';grain'; of your floor.





If it's any other type of paint, I would recommend contacting a laminate floor manufacturer to see what types of solvents will be safe on your flooring.
If its emulsion, obviously water will take it off. I had gloss on my laminate wooden flooring, it came off with turps without damaging it but it was a slow job. Wipe some turps in it, leave it a minute then rub it like crazy. Definately won't damage your floor.
If it is water paint it should just wash off with soap and water.
They have a new product on the market...its called a drop cloth get it use it
pick up the floor, take it outside and give it a shake - if it dont remove it you will surely have a designer one when it runs all over lol x
is it emulsion or gloss/


emulsion will wash away using water and loads of paper towels or old clothes to clean use warm water and washing liquid you are wanting to clear all the paint away when you have cleared alot of the paint away scrub the last bit using a sponge scrub lightly remove last of paint.


if its gloss its going to be tougher end of day you have ruined the wood just put thinner on it and keep rubbing with old clothes and soak up the paint and try lifted it all off.
maybe white spirits(turps) will help,gud luk wiv that one
Topps Tiles do a remover which is ok for wooden floors.
There are paint removers, that soften the paint.


Afterward you remove it with a spatula or putty knife.
