Title: I wish someone would help me on this?

I need to remove bike tyre marks from a hard surface vinyl floor?

I've used all chemical cleaners I can think of.

Lateral thinking???

Hi

You could try the iron method.

Warm iron with a cloth underneath and remelt the rubber, or soften it

Try Brillo degreaser with scourer.

the floor will just need scrubbing with a floor stripper and black scrubbing pad then reseal floor with some floor polish

If they are brown marks rather than black then the Vinyl has been permanently damaged. We have the same problem in our showroom where the Prowlers stand (black tyres) can't shift it and I've got hundreds of chemicals to choose from.
