Black Shoe Marks On Hardwood Floors

Question:
My boys got a little wild in the living room after a basketball game and their shoes left black marks all over my hardwood floors. My regular cleaner won't get them out. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Answer:
To clean tough stains such as black shoe marks, crayon, tar or lipstick use a non-abrasive waterless hand cleaner. You can also use a cautionary amount of paint thinner (mineral spirits) or a product such as Goof Off. Be sure to wear a mask when using products such as these to avoid toxic fumes. When you're finished, wipe with a slightly damp cloth to remove any oil residue.
