Suggestions needed to remove red dye from lino

wherediditallgo

Someone's managed to get red dye from their red-soled flip-flops on my nice new beige & mushroom lino bathroom floor.:mad: I've tried soapy water and bleach, but they didn't work - the floor still looks pink & I'm so cheesed off with it. I can't afford to replace the flooring, & I wondered if any of you had any suggestions for getting the stain out. Thanks.

Have you tried a piece of kitchen towel placed over it that has been soaked with rubbing alcohol, you leave on a for a few mins then wipe with warm soapy water. Am sure my mum had a similar problem a few years ago and thats what she did.

Thanks, I'll try to get some rubbing alcohol (where would you find that? ) in the morning. I'll let you know how I get on.

Rubbing alcohol (or isopropyl alcohol) is available from hardware shops.

Good luck, and let us know how it works.

Wd40 is good for a lot of things, maybe some on a cloth might be worth a try
