Warning: Nail polish remover can remove the finish off wood. FYI.

Yes, I agree with the poster about using nail polish remover. It works.

BTW, that story is hilarious! I love your cat's huge ears! He sounds like a real troublemaker (those cats are the most fun to have).

We are moving into a house and the floor is hard wood but they decide to paint the whole floor red, how do I remove that?

for a "family" fun night, we all gathered around and started painting. unfortunatly the cat got into the paint, and stepped all around the house.
we need help getting the paint off. and worst of all, the paint color is HOT P!NK

I got dried emulsion up from our wooden floor using my wife's acetone free nail polish remover applied on a cloth. It's slow going but worth it as it's effective.

My daughter got artsy one day & got BRIGHT orange paint on my hardwood floor & our grey couch.
Covered alot of area my little artist did.
I used a widget to scrape it up & it worked great.
The couch never recovered lol.

Try rubbing with a small amount of denatured alcohol (I have also used rubbing alcohol). I used an old wash cloth and it worked well.
