You only need some Goo Gone to do a hardwood floor restoration project. Treating stuck-on floor adhesive is easy with the help of Goo Gone Goo & Adhesive Remover Spray Gel selection of the Goo Gone Pro Power line of products. 

Goo Gone is crucial for sticky situations, whether it's getting a clean window after your child placed superhero stickers on the glass or removing pesky price tag sticker residue from an appliance. It effectively breaks down stuck-on adhesives to make them easy to wipe clean. The Pro Power Line of Goo Gone brings in the big guns with residue-fighting ingredients for the tougher, set-in sticky messes. In particular, the Goo Gone Goo & Adhesive Remover Spray Gel can help you treat and remove caulk, adhesive, and glue from surfaces. Here's how to harness its awesome power for a residue-free wood floor.

Per the manufacturer, the Goo Gone Goo & Adhesive Remover Spray Gel is safe for finished wood, sealed stone, ceramic and porcelain, and hard vinyl. But it's worthwhile to test a small inconspicuous spot before you tackle a massive project.  Once you have, however, you simply need to squirt the spray gel on the stuck-on adhesive, saturating the patch well. Don't wipe it up right away. Instead, wait at least five minutes for it fully soak in before removal. Once the time is up, use a putty knife to gently pry the glue away from the floor. Work through the adhesive patch with the putty knife until you have everything removed. Once you're satisfied with the spot, treat the area with soap and water and a clean cloth to remove any remaining residue.

You might have to repeat the process, especially if you have a stubborn spot that won't come up right away. Goo Gone also advises you can apply hot water to the surface, wait for a few minutes, then try applying the spray gel. If you're new to the product, be sure to avoid these common mistakes when using Goo Gone, such as using it in an area without proper ventilation.
