LOL, same here.

You'll have to experiment John.
Try some acetone, and wash off quickly with water. Do a small patch first & if it works go for it. I'd recommend 2 squeegee floor mops, one with acetone, the other with water, just so your not on your hands & knees. Watch which floormops you use - the acetone will disintegrate a modern synthetic.
