Removing Latex Paint From Hardwood Floor
Last year we had some built-ins made for our family room, painted with latex paint by the carpenter prior to installing, and then we had our hardwood floor finished with water-based stain. We had to do some touchups on the bottom of the built-in where some stain got on the cabinetry and, when we finished the touch-ups, we noticed some paint on the floor (notwithstanding my painstaking efforts to put down painters tape) right where the cabinetry meets the hardwood. Now we have to carefully remove the paint on the floor, which is a light color and quite noticeable against the dark hardwood.
I've read about different options such as dish soap, rubbing alcohol, and a product called Goof Off. The last thing I want to do is ruin the stain on the floor so I have to be very careful. Any suggestions or tips?
