Linoleum floors can be a great look in any kitchen or bathroom. The only problem with linoleum flooring is that it can scuff easily if they are frequently walked on with shoes or boots.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Cotton Cloth
  • Baby Oil
  • Dish Washing Gel
  1. Step 1

    For the more easily removable scuffs grab a cotton cloth. Place the cloth over the scuff. Step on the cloth and use your body weight to work the scuff off of the linoleum. Lift up cloth and the scuff should be history.

  2. Step 2

    For more stubborn scuffs grab some baby oil. Apply the baby oil to the scuff and rub it with a cotton cloth. This should work the scuff right off the floor.

  3. Step 3

    If the flooring is scuffed in many places you can renew the whole floor easily by using dish washing gel. Spread the gel onto the floor and let it sit for about three to five minutes. Spread the gel around with a cloth, this will clean up the scuffs. Rinse the floor and dry it well because it will be slippery due to the dish washing gel.
