Browse Forums Flooring & Floor Covering 1 May 08, 2009 9:38 am Hi there I have two large stains (darken spots about A5 size) on my polished wooden floor boards.These came about from a couple of those plastic shopping bags laying on the floor and my cat (I might disown him now!)has peed in them and his pee has mixed with a couple of phamplets in those bags and then a stain has formed on the flooring. I have just tried a few simple household cleaners, but it seems to have leeched into the varnish/sealer.My next step is to try metho or turps? I just thought it's better to ask the question before I tried this. Any tips or advice would be appreciated. Thanks Simon Re: Stains on polished wooden floor boards 2May 31, 2009 7:51 am I think you will be lucky if it's only the varnish/finish affected. Try steel wool to see if it's a surface stain, if it doesn't work I think the only solution would be to sand it out. If that gets to bare timber so be it and revarnish - if the timber is stained then you may keep sanding to see how deep... ???? When recoating instead of a brush to apply the varnish you could use your cat... insert a handle into its rear end, dip in the pot and use long strokes (cats like long strokes)... Clean the cat afterwards in white spirits and let it dry naturally. we have 3 cats Ed "ECOECO" At 'EcoEco', we design windows, we design the best windows, we do it for you, so that when you’re happy we are happy.
