Any ideas on how to remove double-sided tape from a hardwood floor without
ruining the finish? There was carpet in the laundry room and i pulled it
out because I didin't want moisture to build up under the rug. It was stuck
with DS tape. There is about a three foot strp that is stuck really, really
good. TIA.

Both responses may do the trick. Also Goof Off or Goo Off or some such brand
will also work.

The key, in my opinion. Is to try some in a spot that will not be seen. make
sure what ever you use will not harm the finish.
