Dont do that ^^^^

It'll just get very messy and you will have to wash it off...last time I checked water and laminates dont mix. Let alone nitromors mixed in.

Buy a filler knife and chip them off. Job done.

No offence meant Ed.


+1

but if its grained laminate (untreated) try to go with the grain so theres no noticable scraps :)

would say thinners but think we no what would happen ;)

The g/f recently used WD40 to soak in the paint and then used her nails to remove loads of flecks from her sisters bedroom floor. However the paint was only dried on for about 24-48 hours.

None taken, just a suggestion as mine seems pretty damn tough...

I've been renovating a house for
the last year. Unfortunately
several areas of laminate have
been splashed with gloss.

Can anyone
suggest something to remove it?
