How to correct yellowing flooring?
+2
I have off white with a tan veining luxury vinyl flooring, an area in front of a floor length window has yellowed in color. I have tried washing with baking soda and peroxide, no change. Can you suggest something that will work.

Exposure to UV light will yellow vinyl and fade other materials. So I would put some reflective window film on the windows or use blinds to control exposure to UV rays. -

You can try painting your floor with porch paint or you will need to replace your vinyl i'm afraid. -

I read that the yellowing is caused by the sun affecting the vinyl which causes it to turn yellow. You could contact a flooring manufacturer but it is very doubtful that this can be remedied. The newer vinyls are supposedly protected from this yellowing condition.
