How to Get Black Nail Enamel Off a Floor

Be careful when you use nail polish remover to clean black nail enamel from a wood floor, because nail polish remover can easily damage the floor's finish. Test the cleaning process on a small, inconspicuous area of the floor to ensure the process won't damage the floor. If the floor is wood, use light pressure and as little of the nail polish remover as possible. Always work in a well-ventilated area when using nail polish remover.
