Hi Kim,
If you can be more Specific about your Question that will greatly help.
Is it a VCT Tile with Wax ? Is the Yellow Stains Over the Wax or Under the Wax ?
If not a VCT Tile and not waxed does it have scratches?

If it's VCT and nothing else works you can try screening the tile itself if you know what your doing.

Kim I use Mr. Clean all the time and have never had it turn a floor yellow. I have seen some cheap vinyl that yellows over time though. I have heard that if you make a paste of baking soda and water and put it on the yellow places and let it soak for a while that it will take the yellow out. Patti

Mr Clean would NEVER get yellow stains on the floor, maybe his 2 year old son, but never Mr Clean himself... o' you meant the cleaning product...

Sorry Mr. Clean, That was just what the owner had told me. I also use Mr. Clean, and never have had any problems. When it comes to floors I just need a little help. Thanks for setting me straight. Kim

Ok, it turns out the floor is linoleum. The best way for me to describe it is this--You no when you put a mat down on a wet floor and it turns yellow, thats what it looks like. and it also looks like there has been something on it to make it shine. I don't have a clue what. I could use all the help I can get here with these floors. Thanks Kim

Kim It sounds like what I said in an earlier post, I have seen some cheap linoleum floors do this and there is nothing that would get it out. I had a customer with a kitchen floor like this and we tried everything on it. Just needs to be replaced. Patti
