Hey all... Swirh's friend has gotten in quite of a jam as of late. Here is the lowdown... Friend of Swirh has accidentally (through a mad rush and inattention to minor preventive techniques such as maybe some plastic!) dropped some I onto friend of Swirh's wifeys floor and as we all know... a sliver the size of a frog hair makes a spot about the size of a quarter. Tried some spray starch but stain had set already...Anyone got any suggestions as far as removing from linoleum?? This will save a life... hehe. Thanks all..

Swirh, make a paste from white vinegar and

cream of tartar. It's worth a try and good luck

use hcl it works for swim. or steam seems to work also

easy off oven cleaner swil knows for a fact!

Good Luck! With I2, you'll need it.

SWIL awaits the day he can have a working Lab of his own...

Ah yes my brother, with all the fixins'...tis' a favorite fantasy of Swiss' as well.....

soak a rag with bleach and let sit on stain with alittle pressure(a book) for a while,worked for me,also a mixture of baking soda and water works if I remember right.

Thanx for all the tips... Some progress has been made in the jaundice area lol. Swirh thinks that just scrubbing the hell out of spots has had best result...Poor poor friend of Swirh.... at least the spots are not so bad that his wife will cut his balls off and feed em to him like a Colombian death squad. Preciate all the help.

As usual, I can only remember enough to make me dangerous. I read somewhere (see what I mean?) about "SWIM's yellow house" and someone had the straight up on how to do it. It was very easy if I remember correctly. I think it was bleach. Simple as that. Please don't use acid on the linoleum. Even bleach can dull it and lighten the color. Be careful or you may have to come up with some really creative story.

Anybody else remember the yellow house post? It was a bee thing.
