About 3 years ago I brought a rug with a rubber back for my linoleum kitchen floor. I have now noticed that the tile has turned yellow. How can I remove it?

Thanks,
Gail from Kentucky

I used Whink rust remover (liquid) to remove 6 year old throw rug stains on my linoleum. It was a last resort but it worked!

the 'stain' is a chemical reaction inside the vinyl flooring material. It's not something that can come out. The only thing to do is keep it covered or replace the floor. In future, do not cover newer vinyl floors with rubber backed mats.

I have a bathroom with a new linoleum floor (less than one year). Our tenants put throw rugs by the toilet and shower. The rugs reacted with the linoleum and left a dark yellow stain exactly the outline of the rugs. I have tried everything to remove the stain. Can anyone please help?

There isnt anything that will remove the yellow marks. I also rented an apartment and after I replaced the flooring I added a sentence in the contract that stated if they use rubber back carpets on the floor they will have to replace the flooring before they leave. After that no one used those carpets again.
