Try using a steam iron, put a damp cloth on top of the paint and then the iron on top and steam the paint, it may soften it enough to get it off with a plastic scraper so you don't mar the floor finish.

I live in an apartment and the closets have a musty smell to them. Is there anyway to get rid of it?

It depends. You can try leaving a slightly open box of baking soda in the closets to absorb the odor. If the closet has a stackable washer/dryer in it make sure you are cleaning the lint catcher as it will ALWAYS smell of damp lint

How to remove dried Behr Premium Plus Ultra Eggshell enamel from Pergo flooring?

Hello, Natalie -

You may find the information on this web page instructive:
https://mattthepainter.com/safest-way-remove-paint-laminate-flooring

If you hired a interior house painter or painters to do your painting job, I hope you reported the dried paint drips on your laminate flooring to the painting business. Perhaps, the painter / painters will offer to hire a professional cleaning business such s Servicemaster or Servpro to remove the dripped paint from your flooring.

Best wishes.

How do I fix gloss paint that dried with multiple matte areas after second coat was applied? 1st coat went on fine and dried glossy.

the matte areas could be blushing from the paint
although the temp was 68 degrees it is the humidity in the air that causes the problem
when covering gloss with a second coat , it may be advisable to rough up the gloss coat first

Dropped a glob on laminate flooring. Dried. Haven't touched it.

Depending on what the glob is....try gently scraping at it with a putty knife. A lot of dried globs will easily come up from a laminate floor.

Sealing laminate flooring

for determining that more information is needed, especially what type, brand/manufacturer, what thickness, base and chemical base of it...

in most cases sealing laminate (especially printed laminate!) is bad idea. if this laminate is with wood overlay at the top, with thickness of at least 1.5mm (1/16") and not chamfered edges (for skilled craftsman - floor installer, even 1mm) , then you can use any type of floor paint on the top,

you will need to wear chemical mask if you use poly or any solvent based paint, mask will not be necessary if you use water based paint. during sealer process - you can keep windows open, but not during painting... open windows will cause ripple effect on the paint!

prepare floor in following method:
sand very lightly (matt only indeed) firstly whole area with #120 or even #150 mesh and then with scourer of #180 or #240, if possible use rotary, do not forget to do edges of the rooms! and especially corners...

if this is "bare" wood then:

1. use universal sealer, use good quality paintbrush (50mm - 2") on the edges and corners of the floor and use good quality long hair roller on broad area, sealer will dry up within half hour to 1hr, depending on temperature and humidity, after seal dry,
2. paint directly over prepared floor with appropriate paint, suitable to the sealer and your requirements.
3. after 24hrs, scour area again in method as above and then
4. strain the paint and paint final coat.
5. wait at least 24hrs before you step on the floor,
6. wait at least 5 to 7 days before moving furniture in, especially haevy items!
7. wait at least 30 days before you put rugs or mats on the floor

if this is pre-painted laminate and no damage to it, you skip point 1 and follow from point 2.

it is labour intensive process and albeit cut can be made in several days, paint must be done in single go! better if you have some assistance, one person doing the edges and one person rolling the paint. i do this sometime alone but usually one of the ta's will assist me... paint need to be applied rather thick in even motions no puddles and no bare bits left on the floor!

if you think about skipping cutting stage - DONT! - paint will start flaking and peeling away sometimes in few days or weeks, sometime after a year or so...

I have a problem with an exterior front door. I had undercoated and glossed using stronghold exterior paint after sanding and sugarsoaping. The undercoat went ok ok but the gloss started to wrinkle and...

It sounds to me like you have some bad paint as everything else you are doing sounds good. I would strip it back down, let it dry and try another brand. Good luck. Thank you
