Default Getting Red Easter egg Dye off of laminate and wood

Cute darling grand daughter spilled this dye on counter top (removed), down the side of cabinet which is wood and all over laminated wood floor.
Anyone know of a spray that can take this lovely red stain everywhere off of these surfaces.
I am sure there is something but do not want to buy 8 different products to see if they work. Thank you.

Red and blue is the hardest to remove. Call whoever installed your counter and floor and ask their opinion

You probably have chlorine in the house, take an inconspicuous location and use a cuetip to test on the counter top, cabinet, and the floor. If these respond well, then I would use paper towels, gloves, and carefully work on the stains. You may need and additional counter top cleaner and sealer when you are done.

Mineral spirits, aka paint thinner should do the trick.

Dynamite! KABOOM! All the damaged surfaces ready for an updated look.
Or, you could savor the spills as precious moments of an Easter filled with love. Also, help to guilt her into senior care later down the road.

Seriously, good luck with suggestions from others. And remember the special bond you built coloring the eggs.
