Hi All,
Recently, we had a Gorilla glue mishap which has left the glue on the kitchen floor (linoleum). Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can go about removing this mess we have created?
Thanks!

According to the FAQ on the Gorilla a Glue web page: "Cured glue can be removed with a chisel, scraper, or sandpaper"
Good luck. If you had a good coat of was it my come up easily, but if not, . . . . . .
It tends to "foam" and unless it is clamped, the stuff doesn't like to stick to non-porous surfaces.
With a little luck, it will come up after one or two cycles of "wear and tear" and routine cleaning.
OR you can get a single edge razor blade and CAREFULLY scrape it up.
try goof off or goo gone, havent tried it on gorilla glue but these
2removed contact cement from a friends tiled kitchen floor.no harm in trying great if you have kids
Nothing to be gained, either. The urea-formaldehyde glue is nothing like contact cement and a tile floor is nothing like linoleum...
If it had been caught when fresh and not fully cured, acetone is a solvent. Of course, if it is "real" linoleum, that would have a pretty high probability of taking the color out of the flooring. Choose your poison.
As Edwin says, if the floor was in good shape and had a coat of wax, best hope is it will simply lift off, not adhering to the slick surface. After that, it's pretty much impervious to anything non- mechanical that would do more harm to the floor than the glue itself.
I'd probably worry at it w/ some of the plastic scraper thingies and see if could break chunks free. If I was lucky it would pop off. If I were really lucky I'd have a chunk of scrap flooring that could be patched in to make a neat repair.
