Melted plastic is generally non-toxic and usually a pain to remove. It is generally disposed of as trash, as it cannot really be re-used. If it's hot, it is hazardous as it can burn you and tends to stick to skin and materials. In that light, it is dangerous. Melted plastic is the material used in injection molding. That melted plastic is not "bad" as it is being used for a purpose (the manufacture of goods).
Ammonia is not a cleaner we'd choose to remove plastic from surfaces. It (ammonia) won't dissolve or "melt" the plastic, so it is ineffective in removing melted plastic from surfaces.
To remove melted plastic from a wood floor, you will need an iron and brown paper sacks or brown craft paper. Lay the craft paper over the plastic. Apply the hot iron to the paper and apply pressure just until the plastic becomes soft. Once the plastic is soft, peel it off the wood floor.
One method is to freeze the plastic by applying ice or a freezer pack, then gently scrape it off with a plastic scraper or credit card. You can also try using a hairdryer to soften the plastic before wiping it off with a cloth soaked in vinegar or WD-40. Be cautious not to scratch the chrome surface while removing the melted plastic.
Yes, nail polish remover can damage plastic surfaces by causing them to become discolored, cracked, or melted. It is important to avoid using nail polish remover on plastic surfaces to prevent damage.
No, a kitchen worktop is typically made of materials like granite, quartz, wood, or laminate, which are not thermoplastics. Thermoplastics are a type of plastic that can be melted and reshaped multiple times.
Yes, melted plastic can hurt you. The primary danger is from a burn. Melted plastic is hot, and it tends to stick to skin and clothing. It is exceptionally dangerous stuff in that regard.
Plastic is always going to be plastic. When plastic is melted it becomes hard.
Ammonia is not a cleaner we'd choose to remove plastic from surfaces. It (ammonia) won't dissolve or "melt" the plastic, so it is ineffective in removing melted plastic from surfaces.

Smoke or gas let off by a melted plastic spoon is toxic and should be avoided. The cooled plastic can be disposed of in the trash in a normal way.
These plastic bottles are first shredded to produce plastic chips. Depending on what they will be recycled to make these plastic chips may or may not be melted.

Plastic is melted by applying thermal energy -- heat. Plastic "bits" are dumped into a hopper, and a screw type feed mechanism forces them through a heated section of the screw housing. Resistance heating elements are used, and they convert electricity to heat energy to melt the plastic. The temperature is controlled by electronics, and run appropriately for the type of plastic being melted. This melted plastic is then forced out the end into molds in a process called injection molding.
It is history. The paper bag and iron is for wax. If you did that first, you just melted more plastic into the fabric. It will not come out. If you had froze it first, it might have popped off, or it may have already been into the fabric.
I believe in most cases it is just a good general idea to remove the melted plastic all together, just to be safe.
The easiest way to get melted plastic off of concrete is using a heat gun. You can heat it and them absorb with a porous scrap cloth.
