Many natural cleaners like white vinegar and baking soda can be used to safely remove paint from laminate floors. These products have mild abrasive properties which help lift away dirt and grime while being gentle enough not to scratch or damage the surface. To use these products, mix one part white vinegar with two parts water in a spray bottle and liberally apply it directly onto any affected areas. Allow it to sit for five minutes before scrubbing gently with a soft cloth or sponge dipped in warm water until all traces of paint have been removed.

To use this method, simply apply a generous amount of rubbing alcohol directly onto the affected area and let it sit for several minutes. Then use a soft cloth or sponge to scrub away the paint until it’s completely gone. Be sure to rinse with warm water after you’re finished to remove any residual alcohol.
  • Baking Soda and Water Paste
Baking soda is one of the most versatile cleaning products available, and it can also be used to remove paint from laminate floors.

The "big bend" description of the forum covers quite a distance of coast line.

If you can share the general vicinity of where you're wanting to launch it might help folks give answer(s) that are most convenient for you. :thumbup:

I'm back in Montana for the summer but was talking with a buddy down there yesterday and he said either Rocky's or Crum's was advertising Fiddler Crabs. Not sure which one.
