Is there a way to remove no more nails from LVT flooring surface ?

    I have no idea if this would work but my first thought was wait for it to dry completely then gently scrape it off - with a Stanley blade or similar if needed.

    On most surfaces, I'd recommend trying a heat gun, but LVT is somewhat sensitive to that; stick to "mechanical means", if you do heat it up, be careful, think hairdryer or hot water, not heatgun.


    A small patch you can scrape off gently; White spirit or Petrol don't damage LVT surfaces unless left on for a long time, so one can use those to scrub out any residue (wear gloves).


    Other solvents (thinners, paintstrippers or acetone) best avoid, they may etch the surface.


    (Source for this info: Polyfloor's "LVT Technical Manual" - it has a page on "Resistance to Chemicals")


    And definitely wash it down with neutral floor cleaner afterwards to make sure nothing's left to dry and stain.
