How Can I Remove Isoprophyl Alcohol Stain In My Vinyl Flooring? It Left An Acid Dot Stains In My Floor. Help?
February 1st, 2010 | 
Author: Are you sure that it was isopropyl alcohol that did this to your floor?
Isopropyl/rubbing alcohol is often recommended (by vinyl flooring manufacturers) to clean Black heel marks, Hair dye, Latex paint, Lipstick, Mercurochrome / Merthiolate & Pen ink from vinyl flooring.
I’ve used alcohol to remove residue from some of the above, even letting it stand (for up to 1/2 hour) on latex paint until it softened, without anything but the paint wiping off.
You could try acetone…it’s also recommended as a cleaner on vinyl.
Good luck…

How Can I Fix A Bleached Stain In A Carpet?
I had a reptile tank with an under tank heater on my carpet and it seems like the constant heat from the pad lifted the color from the rug. I see by reading other answers that there are ways to dye it back. Does anyone have any idea how much it costs to dye it? The spot is no larger than 1 sqft, and the carpet is a deep ply typical apartment beige.
Thanks!

Hi,
I recenty managed to get biro ink on my white vinyl floor in the bathroom. I was washing a biro stain off my trousers with cold water and some of the inky water splashed onto the floor – I didn’t spot it until the next day and now can’t get it off!
Already tried – hair spray, clearicel spot cream, white spirit, vinegar, salt, detergent, harpic blue bleach, other alcohol based products, butter, hot water, soapy water, and nothing is working.
