Question:
Hi! I hope you can answer this question for me. Our kitchen table has left black rings, or "dots", on our hardwood floor where the table legs touched the floor. In moving the table today I noticed the damage. Is there anything I can do to remove this? We are putting our home on the market so I need to fix this. The rest of the flooring is in great shape. If you have any suggestions that would be great! Thank you.
Answer:
First, put furniture pads on the bottom of those table legs to protect the floor going forward. Second, this is difficult damage to repair, but you can cautiously try "goof off" or a similar product. I suspect, however, that the reaction between the floor finish and the table legs might have caused permanent discoloration that cannot be corrected without sanding and recoating the entire area. It is hard to know without looking at it. Is your floor polyurethane-finished? You might try contacting a manufacturer of such a floor finish - for example Dura Seal, Bona or Basic Coatings. Just google them and you'll get results.
