How can I repair chair-wear on a home office laminate floor?



Laminated floor, supposed to look like dark wood, my husband didn't use a floor protector under his rolling home office chair. Now we have yellowish blemishes in the area in front of his computer. I tried Old English; he tried a cleaner/polisher pair; the rest of the floor looks great but the yellow patches are even BRIGHTER. What now? Dark stain? HELP! We want to sell this house and need a legitimate solution other than replacing the damaged spot.

Hi Sue, I agree with your idea of dark stain. Definitely start small of course and test it first but that's what I would try.
Lightly sand the area where you applied the polish so the stain will get to the 'wood'. Did you use the dark Old English? That stuff is a life saver here with my huge dog on my wood floors. Works every time. They also make laminate repair kits, but not certain if they are worth it.
