I live in a rental, so will this item wreck wood floors or leave a lot of residue when removed?

I have only had them on for 4months or so so I'm not sure but when I did take some off to reposition it was very easy and didn't show any sign of damage. If anything don't do it across whole step my down the middle where ur fee mainly go. I only used one strip per step. And that helped so much.

I would say yes it will leave a residue. The back is very stick and I remember having to pull a small piece up and it leaving a tacky residue behind. You can use goo gone or another adhesive remover to help.

I haven't tried to remove it, but personally, I'd be wary about what it might leave on hardwood floors.

this will take most of it off then you will to rent a floor sander. for all the effort and man hours invested I would rent a flush cut saw go around the perimeter of the room and remove the subfloor and relay it

I use it weekly on my wood flooring to get rid of footprints. It's been amazing for tile and wood floors.

Absolutely! That is why I bought mine. Half of my house is wood floors the other half is stained concrete. I LOVE my Dyson vacuum!!! It is one if my best purchases!!!!

I'd worry about it damaging hardwood floors. It does put out quite a bit of mist and can drip and accumulate at the base of the fan.

This stuff might work on your floor but it depends on how much square footage you plan to degrease and how aggressive a degreasing you need to do. Remember most degreasers will also remove floor wax and damage synthetic flooring if too concentrated a solution is used. The degreasing solution will have to be removed once the grease is dissolved. A single application of the degreaser may not be enough to do the job thoroughly.

I would try to remove most of it by scraping dry glue with appropriate tool that won't scratch floor tile. Further, I'd try to focus on any in the grout lines, since it might be harder for an adhesive remover to work on this spot. I think that if you have a large area to work that it would be better to ask a flooring specialist about what particular adhesive remover product is needed. I'm thinking there must be something that would be easier work. So, no, I don't think the GOO GONE would attack flooring glues that I've worked with.

I had no problems removing it from hardwood floors. The wood was Brazilian Cherry and house cleaners came in after me to do the move-out cleaning. They vacuumed and used an all over hardwood floor cleaner.

My floor is oak and it never has scatched. If you walk on it I don't see how this could hurt it. But to be on the SAFE side I would check with someone who does flooring. Its a great little machine and very light. Hope it works for you.

No Jason it will not, my floors are mostly wood. The two large wheels are both rubber and one small plastic wheel in which the sweeper spins and turns on. The bristles on the brush are soft as well. It does bounce on furniture and baseboards but no scuff marks or damage. I am very particular about my things and would not recommend this sweeper if it caused damage. You would also find that in other peoples reviews that use iRobot.

It is a metal frame. I don't think it would damage carpet, similar to having a piece of furniture on your carpet. As for hardwood floors, you would not want to scrape it . Mine is in our laundry room on a slate floor and we have not had any problems with movement.

I have laminate wood flooring, not hardwood floors. I usually sweep and mop that floor, but I got my vacuum out to answer your questions and went over the laminate floor with it. There is no scratching at all whatsoever and it does pick up dirt and stuff just fine. I've even picked up a few pebbles or a small screw, etc. with no ill effects. Great vacuum! The rotating brush on the floor doesn't bother me or seem to make a lot of noise. Just the same sound from the carpet to the laminate flooring with a little more hollow sound on the hard floor.

No damage to hardwood whatsoever. This was a concern of mine, as well. Two years old and it's still going strong....has awesome suction.

We do not have hardwood flooring, so I cannot answer as to any damage that it could do, if any, but on our stone floors it seems to vacuum the small bits and any dirt that may find it's way to the floor.

The green pad will strip the finish off your hardwood floor. It is very coarse and I used it to scrub my concrete floor in the basement after a flood. The least abrasive pad available on Amazon is the white one, but even that may be too rough. There is also a terrycloth "bonnet" that is used for polishing floors. I would try that with a non-abrasive solvent to avoid damaging the finish. Can you find out from the builder what the stuff is on the floor and Google how to remove it safely? Best of luck!

Clean as best as you can while wet and the rest will have to wear off. There might be a chemical solution bit it could ruin your carpet.
