What can I use to remove paint. ?

I was painting and got some on the different spots of the floor. I need to clean it up off of tiles and a little off the fridge.

    Try a scraper (carefully). If that doesn't work, pick up a can of Goof Off. It's available at hardware stores and home centers in the paint department and comes in a yellow can. The stuff is great. Hope this helps.

    You can clean it off the tile floor with nail polish remover (acetone)...But don't use that on the frig because it may eat into the paint on the frig !

    If I were you, I'd just let it dry completely on the frig and in a day or two just try to chip it off with your fingernail.. :-)

    Hot water/rag and your fingernail is the best solution this way you don't scratch every thing up. I am assuming you are using latex paint and not an oil base paint.

    Goof Off or Goo Gone will work.
