Pet bed caused Vinyl/Linoleum floor stain....

[Meractik]

Ive tried everything! This pet bed stain occured by having the bed sit in the same spot on the vinyl/linoleum floor in the kitchen for a few months.

It dyed the flooring orangish, the bed itself is brown, a 100% Polyester dog bed from Petsmart.

I tried bleach/white vinegar/dawn & peroxide/baking powder/multiple household tile & floor & multipurpose cleaners/carpet cleaners/ammonia/laundry detergent/nail polish remover...

Anyone have any idea's?

No clue. Sounds like it had some kind of chemical reaction so the stain may permeate the linoleum.

According to this, sunlight or baking soda + water + soft cloth:

If these don't work, they're probably permanent.

I tried that, its not yellow though (as those that would be caused by sunlight/no sunlight) its more of a orangish hue due to the bed itself being brown...

right now im testing bleach, nail polish remover, & baking soda and leaving them sit.... I did notice with a lot of scrubbing and straight nail polish remover I could get a small spot to sort of lighten...
