Question
how do you remove solvent base clear seal on a decorative floor .cant not use xlene are anyhting with smell this is a lobby in hotel that is open .
Answer
Anything that will strip it will have some sort of odor. It's just a matter of how bad.
Your best bet is to try and strip it in the middle of the night then, and perhaps even then just a small area each time to minimize the odor.
Chances are this is a solution acrylic, which will dissolve in any aromatic solvent. You could use a higher flash solvent than xylene. You also might be able to use N-Methyl Pyrolidone mixed with water to minimize odor, and it should still strip it.
