I just put silicone sealer around a new toilet. The sealer is on a wood
floor. What's the best way to remove the thin film of sealant off the floor
without damaging the floor? Thanks so much.

I did the same, but, the floor is ceramic tile. I use guitar strings to cut
the seal when it's time to remove the toilet.

Determine a suitable length. Trim the string to that length. Twist a loop
into each end and put a stick in each loop to make handles. Use the newly
constructed device as you would use a saw. Cut through the silicone to
release the toilet.

Works for me.

(This is much the same method you would use to cut the sealer around a
windshield. There are tools like this sold, but, guitar strings only cost
about $5 a set.)
