Nine floor tiles were coated twice with latex enamel satin black colored. The coating was left to dry for a day before testing the ease of removability of the latex enamel from the floor tile with the chosen cleaner products. Each cleaner was given three coupons for testing. The cleaners were applied onto the coupons with a standard spray bottle with three sprays on each individual coupon and let soaked for fifteen minutes. After fifteen minutes of soaking the coupons were pat dried manually with a paper towel.

TSP All Surface was the most effective remover of the paint, but it also led to paint chipping on the tiles. Moldex paint prep and TSP liquid substitute did not exhibit significant dullness after a manual towel pat down.
