Scuffs on Linoleum Floors

Clean rubber heel marks from kitchen linoleum with a moist cloth dabbed in floor wax. The marks come up and don't leave a dull spot.

Tennis shoes or other rubber-soled shoes work better than anything. Just place your foot/shoe over the scuff and give a little twist. The scuff comes off in a little tiny sliver to pick up or sweep up and throw away. My brother is a school custodian and learned this trick. Can you imagine how much time would have to be spent on those scuffs if he had to tend to each one by hand?

Removing Scuffs From Linoleum Floors

As a custodian, I use a tennis ball attached to a broom handle. A little rub and the black mark is gone.

Use Brillo pads to get rid of scuff marks on linoleum floor. Always works for me. Make sure you are gentle with it. You don't want to scratch your floor.
