>>I will never use it again now that I understand it works through abrasion<<

I don't know how it works, but there doesn't seem to be any chemical cleaner listed on the packaging. It has to work by abrasion (or magic...).

As an update- the linoleum laundry room floor is clean, but now dull looking. It has lost its shine. So there myuust be some kind of abrasive in the ME. Maybe pumice or something?

ellemenope, jym- The ME does work by abrasion. My guess is the structure of the microfibers comprising the foam itself rather than an added chemical abrasive. Seems similar to commercial floor buffing pads, foam sanding blocks and pads that have been around for years.

Just an edumacated guess, as I aren't no engineer.

robinhood- Acetone is the solvent of choice (the only one I'm aware of) for KrazyGlu. It's available at hardware, paint stores. Use full strength, but test a small area (under an appliance, a hidden edge) first. If it does not affect the Corian (it shouldn't), saturate a corner of a rag with acetone, and dab the glob. It should soften it. A razor blade/razor scraper used slowly and judiciously should get the glob off. You may have to repeat a couple of times to get it all. Acetone evaporates fairly quickly. Use adequate ventilation, and DO NOT throw the wet rag in your garbage (it's a potential source of spontaneous combustion). Spread the rag so it dries, and dispose of once dry, preferably in your outside trash receptacle.

I think it leaves a film as I went over floor w/damp mop and it looks fine.

Yes, it's the melamine resin foam itself.
BASF Group: Spring cleaning ... as if by magic

"What looks under the electron microscope like foam on bath water is actually a finely structured three-dimensional network consisting of extremely slender and therefore flexible plastic filaments. The large, almost freely accessible surface produced by this airy structure binds the abraded particles of dirt and contributes to the eraser's astounding grime-removing capabilities." [emphasis mine]

"Only surfaces liable to scratching and varnished surfaces should not be cleaned with the "magician.'"

My husband had success with removing the glue off our Corian countertop by sanding it (look up in your Corian user guide which sandpaper to use). Why do husbands build elaborate garage workstations, but all of their "projects" end up in the kitchen?

true, that, Bunsenburner!!!
