Brown vinegar stain!

Hi guys! Ok, I had some nasty double sided carpet tape to remove from my laminate flooring. I had no white vinegar so used brown....... It worked brilliantly! Except for the fact that I am now left with whitish stains all over my floor :(
Any ideas??

    The instructions for our laminate floor said that nail varnish remover should be used to remove stubborn stains and sticky stuff. Not sure if this is true for all laminates, but you could try it in a concealed area and wait 24 hours, maybe?

    Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere (please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies.

    Try white spirit first and then nail varnish remover (carefully)
