Not easy. Personally I’d try one of those mildly abrasive pastes like Ajax liquid or something. And gently rub it.
Or even better- someT- cut like you would use on a car.
You will need to be really gentle. I don’t think there’s MUCH you can do, to be honest.
Lay flat on your stomach, covering the scorch for a period of not less than five years.
It won’t remove the stain but your landlord will become confused and lose interest over such strange behaviour.
this is a tricky one as it sounds like whatever hit it has melted the surface. Hmmmm. The only thing I can think of, if not too deep damage is to try one of those wire wool soap pads, wet it and very very gently try rubbing over the mark. Take no responsibility though!
First, understand that the material is changed by the heat, it can’t be perfectly restored. It can be fixed by replacement of the affected area.
If you have some spare material from the original install, a good floor mechanic can remove a section and insert a patch. Depending on pattern and workmanship, it may well be invisible, and durability maintenance will be the same as the original. This is by far the best fix.
There are many types of vinyl flooring, and the way to improve the spot if possible would depend on the type. Filled vinyls can be scraped or sanded slightly. Vinyls with a clear wear surface over a pattern print are less suited to this. Because the thickness and toughness of the layer varies widely with the product quality, it can be easy to do more damage than good. In any case, steps to reduce the discoloration will also reduce the gloss of the surface, trading one issue for another.
