How to safely remove spray paint overspray on a Polyurea floor?

[haugy]

I've got a nice white polyurea floor, and like an idiot I didn't cover it wide enough when spray painting a toolbox black.

I can get the overspray off if I scrub hard enough with a dry towel, but it's EVERYWHERE in a big shop. Don't know how it carried so far.

But will mineral spirits eat into Polyurea coatings? What else could I try to not ruin my nice floor?

Try a magic eraser and 70% isopropanol . Test in a spot you don't see first as it may impact gloss.

I don't know about your floor, but with the epoxy on my shop floor I have an old floor buffer with a nylon grit brush. About once or twice a year I will do an extra good job of scrubbing the floor and use a scrapper to peel off paint drips and the nylon grit brush will scrub off any over spray awith very little impact to the floor.

Goof off and it won't damage the floor,but of course test in an area first.

So I need to update this. After trying a number of chemicals, Isopropyl alcohol, cleaners, brushes, all kinds of stuff, I took a break. During that break (aka bourbon), I thought about the cleaner/degreaser I use on my car tires which is friggin amazing.

I sprayed a small test spot and wiped. It didn't come off too easily, but better than some of the other things. So I sprayed again, and let it sit for a few minutes. Wiped right off in one swipe. Grabbed some old shop towels, and a big pump sprayer and coated a section at a time. Came right off with some serious shuffling of the feet with a towel underneath.

I've still got a lot to do, basically because things are parked on top, but definitely worked AMAZING. The cleaner I use is from Chemical Guys, it's their orange degreaser. Kick *** on tire cleaning, even better on overspray spray paint.
