Yellow stain on lino

6 replies

Oopsydaisynotagain · 06/02/2021 14:29

We have lino in our bathroom (not as bad as it sounds!! It’s a lovely pattern tile effect!). It’s mainly white however where the bath mat is (rubber backed) it has yellowed- probably due to getting damp.

We are putting our flat on the market and have done a major clean up- the only thing I can’t get out is the yellow stain on the lino!

I have tried bleach and I have tried white vinegar with and without bicarbonate of soda. It has faded but not gone! The lino isn’t shiny- it’s matte.

Any suggestions?

TIA

Cif? One of those white block thingys... magic eraser?

Cif is good as it’s a micro abrasive so rubs off the stain, but may not work in this case as if it’s yellowed throughout it might be all the way through the Lino if you see what I mean.

I have a yellow station on my lino caused by toilet cleaner, so be careful what you put on it!
