Depending on how strong the adhesive is, giving it a good scrub with some rubbing alcohol will do the trick. Otherwise, you might want to go to a home improvement store and find a product specific to your type of floor.

Answer 4

Just spray some deoderant on it. try lynx or something

Answer 5

Buy a small can of acetone. Use a wash cloth soaked in it and rub off the adhesive. Can't find acetone get ronsonol lighter fluid or finger nail polish remover. While these two products are very expensive for the task they will do the job for you.

Baby oil on a Cotton ball

Answer 10

Turpentine, WD40, or Goo be gone might take it out. also try peanut butter, just spread it on and let it sit for 10 to 15 min. the oil in it softens and cuts most "sticky" substances ie gum.

Answer 11

I would do WD-40 first, spray on leave for a few and wipe off. If this doesnt work liquid lighter fluid will also disssolve adhesives very well but I would be cautious it may eat the finsh off. I would put a little on a rag not directly on the floor though.

Answer 12

Try white spirit
