Floor Stain Removal tips

Here are a few tips i found out on removing stains from the floors.

Scuff Marks
Try removing the scuff marks using a rubber eraser, or using a paste of 2tbsp baking powder and a little water. Rub this mixture using a clean dry cloth into the mark. You can also use a non-gel toothpaste to rub into the mark with a clean dry cloth.

Rust Free
For the situations when the flooring hapens to be Vinyl, spread some baking powder over the rust stains and let it settle for a while. Now dip the cloth in vinegar and and rub it on the stain. Repeat it until the stain is removed.

Concrete Floor
You can clean small spills or spots by using a strong detergent, a scrub brush, and a sponge. A commercial concrete degeaser should be used in cases of oil stains.

Marble Floors
For removng stans off marble, make a paste of baking soda and bleach, and cover the paste with a damp cloth, and leave overnight. Then, wet down and scrap off the residue. Rinse thoroughly.

Remove the Gums
Use an ice cube to chill the gum off the floor. Simply rub it over the material to make it brittle, and then using a plastic spatula, scrape and lift the gum.
