Easily Remove Paint From Your Floors

[@kelleytiner8543]

Thank you for this. I'm currently sitting in my living room with paint all over my floor thanks to my son and you just saved his life. 🙃

Omg same situation mines is on punishment but seeing this calmed me down. Thanks will be trying this today!

[@karenjdavis8]

Your daughter did a great job with painting her room!🎨

[@PoposWoodworks]

She did! I was proud of her. Not many kids would want to paint an entire room by themselves.

[@joycejohnson5794]

So glad your little cutie got paint on the floor. So you could share this tip. Thank you

[@PoposWoodworks]

Your welcome!!

[@jeffreybenedict6720]

It’s an amazing thing to let you kid learn how n there own never a mistake great job dad.

[@monak6692]

Thank you for sharing! Life saver

[@kaitlinkiecker7375]

Hello! Do you think this would work with wood trim? I moved into a new old house, It has been painted over and over and there are a million specks of paint of the original wood trim. I don’t want to take any finish off, but this looks promising!!

[@PoposWoodworks]

I’m not sure, it would definitely be worth a try. If you don’t have a steamer try the steam from an iron and see before you purchase a steamer.

[@charlielongstick7157]

Everyone blaming their kids shoot I got paint all over the floors my damn self 🙈😂🤷🏾‍♂️

[@helpinghearts888]

😂 me too

[@Outspoken.25]

Ahhh me too I’m painting my trim and welllllllll there’s sprinkles of light blue and white on my floor 😭

[@gwendolynnb4135]

Me too, I really thought painting would be easy 😂

You my friend have just saved me hours of torture and a divorce, for that I thank you 👍🏻

Haha!!! Your welcome

[@landajade7537]

Just tried this today. Didn’t have a steamer, but boiled a pot of water. Poured it on the floor, let it set for a minute or two, and wipe. Thanks so much for this video🫶🏽

[@lavag1rl646]

You poured the boiling water on the floor? I just spilled some paint!

[@landajade7537]

@@lavag1rl646 yes just took a cup to pour it on the spot where the paint is and let it sit for a minute. It’ll look like it’s peeling then take a towel and wipe

[@Activatedv]

Ayeee perfect thank you

[@marthamalik1542]

Thx! I don't have a steamer either, so I'll be boiling water too 👍☺️

She did a good job painting !

Love the floors, this is a lesson your baby will NEVER forget lol

[@sygno4871]

But she did a darn good paint job tho..u go girl

[@PoposWoodworks]

She really did! I was extremely proud of her because lord knows I hate to paint myself!!

[@azmgbbb]

Why didn’t wise daddy put plastic down before she painted 🤔. That would have been the best lesson. Teach her prevention.

[@PoposWoodworks]

Actually I did, but it didn't help. I wasn't mad at her either. I was actually proud of her for wanting to do the room herself. We got the paint up fairly quick with the steamer.

[@Ren4U2]

Thank you for this! Gonna try it right now. Kudos to having your daughter clean up the mess she made. It’s great to have children do things they can handle. As long as it’s safe.

[@BattleStar_Yolettica]

Great thinking, dad! My 12 year old did an amazing job like your daughter, but also got the floors real good! I wonder if super hot water on a rag would do a similar trick.

[@bdubbya4200]

THIS GUY IS AMAZING. BEST DAD AND BEST PRO HOUSING LIFEHACKS!

[@annkovacs8027]

I’m a bit late here but thank you for this, I’ve also discovered that a hairdryer on high heat works as well , Who would have thought steamer/hairdryer, thanks again

[@NWYVR]

Do you put any water on the floor before heating with hairdryer? Or just dry heat it?

[@annkovacs8027]

@@NWYVR nope, just concentrated high heat and then I wipe up paint with a damp cloth

[@GNWJNO]

Genius!! I'm hoping this works on primer too. I spilled a whole cup of it on my wood floor yesterday. I got most of it up with a lot of elbow grease but there were some stubborn spots. I like the fact that you are making her clean up the rest. Excellent parenting :)

[@dianndesilva3778]

Dad you must be very proud of your daughter,paint on the floor or not,she did a very good job painting her walls.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🥰

[@LucyLaurent12]

Heat/steam is not good for laminate of any kind. It will cause it to warp. I just watched another video where the guy showed how it came off easily with vinegar or laminate cleaner and a soft cloth. I also have the plastic paint scraper, which works well.

[@vanessavanessa8974]

Use a SOS pad

[@vanessavanessa8974]

Use a hair dryer

[@darkygirl2006]

I will try this now and be back!! I have stains all over my room. I just tried it, it takes a lot of time to remove small stains and very small ones still wont be removed easily but thank you for the video was somehow helpful

[@paant5025]

Did not work. Guess it depends on the type of paint and the type of wood

[@takishagambe7510]

Great tip, my house looks the same way except adults painted the rooms

[@sabbynoor225]

Thankssssssssss... I had a steam iron, I used this trick and It worked like a charm. You saved my floor!!!!!

A year later and you’re still helping ppl! Thank you and the little painting angel. :)

[@Felicia55]

Wow!!! I don't have a steamer but I have hot water and a steam iron. I'm going to try it!!

[@MsArtistwannabe]

Wow, it is like magic. I think your daughter did a great job painting her own room. Good for her. She has learned a lot!

[@abbysabbaya5335]

Culprit has all te smiles. 😁 Well, she's quite happy with her room's paint work. Well done by herself 🙂😊

[@PoposWoodworks]

I was really proud of her. She honestly did a great job and not many kids would want to tackle a painting job like that.

[@villoni]

And what a terrible thing for the father to say it was acmistake to allow her to paint. What a shame

[@jessicavelazquez3919]

Thank you thank you thank you!!! Glad your kid made a mess!! Hahaha

[@bytesizedfeed]

Damn she did a better job than I did and spilled less paint than I did and I’m 27

[@mikeatgoogle501]

Can you put a clothing iron over it and then wipe? Try that.

[@francoisona]

Alternatively, put on kitchen gloves, use very warm water, same effect, faster and no need to go and get a steamer.

[@gayathrimadhukumar7811]

Yes, this worked for me 🤗

[@AntoinetteO]

You can also use a steam mop. I've got lvp floors and you can use a steam mop on those floors. Great video and thanks for sharing.

[@JohnGreen-we4sc]

Dude you just saved me 1500 dollars

[@CharlesGervasi]

This was a huge help. My 10 y/o daughter similarly got paint on the hardwood floors while painting her room. We used a steam iron over a wet rag to loosen the drops of latex paint. It worked.

[@sandrakline7033]

WOW! Thank you, lol it was your 11 yr old daughter that let the paint dry. It was my 64 yrs old husband that let it dry on the our floors. 😤

[@annas.5894]

I can empathize!

[@lolii1317]

I'm 11 and I let the paint dry on the floor 🥺👉👈

[@futureman2070]

you can use hot water it will work

[@TC-rw1kf]

Wet cloth and hot iron with steamer works great also. DO NOT SET HOT IRON ON DRY FLOOR! I used bucket hot water to soak cloth. Set iron maybe 5 seconds at most. Press steam even and wipe.

[@doncallangher6177]

Thanks for the tip:) really helped out. You’re a good dad, and your daughter is very sweet.

[@IVANNYFALLA]

Thank you, It really works great. Not only it cleaned the paint, but left the floor very clean.

[@MomAsol]

Thanks for sharing

[@Str8boroMAGaming]

Just tested this on my floor that has 10+ year old dried paint on it and it worked. It'll be a lot of scrubbing off but it'll do the job! Thank you

[@drramulack]

latex paint..that would never work on oil based paint.

[@SauteCinema]

God Bless you and your steamer😂 My fiance was about to kill me after hours of my elbow grease not doing a darn thing😂

[@MegaCAdou]

Amazing thank you 👏 I've ruined my hallway so I'm not better than the kid but now it can be fixed.

[@kaylaumana3917]

I needed this so bad LOL accidentally close my cats into a room where I was painting came back in the whole floor is covered in white foot prints

[@rlh9373]

Thats why i use eggshell White latex paint. Let it dry scrape it up if you stepped in it and tracking it around the room .deckbrush water soap . Then dry mop then spot clean.

[@goejeni]

Tell the culprit there. Her room looks amazing and as for the floor, she did good on the clean up with the help of her consultant. Heck she could make a business with her Painting skills. After all ... mistakes make us stronger and better, right dad?

[@ravenlynn1213]

Thanks Pops. New to your channel. This was real helpful. I have subscribed. PS. Cutest little culprit I have ever seen. Looks like a daddy's girl for sure. She will definitely be paroled with that little face. Keep the videos coming.

Thanks for this - exactly what I needed. I moved into a new apartment a few days ago and the floors were all like your one.

[@marthamalik1542]

Good job for letting her do her own walls. And good job on teaching her consequences of having to clean up a her own mess. She did a great job and she picked a lovely color. She is less mess than I am when I paint. Hahaha Just a friendly suggestion from one parent to another... ( My kids are all grown up now) Look for the good in them and tell them what a good job they have done & they will rise up to meet your expectations. I know how it is to work 3rd shift and finding a mess like paint on the floors isn't fun to wake up to but praise first then ( as you did) help her discover a solution. Great job to your independent kiddo and good job to you Dad for helping her find a solution.

[@tiredofit1968]

you're not supposed to use.steam on those floors, unless its hardwood. i know you cant use a steam mop on LVP (vinyl planks). I just read that you aren't supposed to use it on hardwoods, either, because it can.cause the wood to swell and warp. I just don't want you to mess them up cause they're pretty!

[@LucyLaurent12]

I just told him that you can't use heat on laminate - of any kind.

[@Elizabeth-ux5kd]

Awww she paints like me. I have paint all over my floor even with a drop clotj

[@SiimplyyJ]

Long shot: but would this work on paint that’s been on the floor for almost a year? 🙄

[@PoposWoodworks]

I’m not sure, if it’s latex paint it should come up with steam. It would be worth a try if you have a steamer or know someone you could borrow one from.

[@nora__]

This works!! I saw this and immediately tried it on my natural hardwood floor with paint that's been stuck on for about a decade. It took a little bit of elbow grease, but I'm thrilled. I have a few spots around the house that I just figured I'd have to live with until we had the time to refinish the floors. I'm so excited I no longer have to! And to those freaking out about the water on the hardwood, it sits there for literally seconds before it's wiped up and completely dry again... Relax.

My wife had the day off work yesterday and I'm painting a house.. I'm a carpenter by trade but I also paint... She wanted to come help.. Ok.. Come over...I let her paint some baseboard.. Showed her how to dip the brush.. Wipe it off in the cup before taking it out so that you have just what you need to do your section and also showed her exactly what to do and told her go slow.. Never again.. I'm at Lowes right now looking for something to take paint off tile and grout

AW YEAH that was weirdly satisfying to watch. You blot those blobs! Great tip.

[@biondatiziana]

Steam does work, but it's not so great for your laminate floors. Use it sparingly and wipe up any remaining moisture. Rubbing alcohol (especially the higher strength version) will soften latex paint so you can use a plastic scraper to remove it.
