Will these stain vinyl floors?

We haven't put them on vinyl floors, but have used them on carpet and wood floors without any problem. I don't think the color comes off the mats.

No. Truthfully, I haven't had the best experience with them. I just took up the floor I laid down about two months ago because the tiles kept sliding around. They wouldn't stick. I've had experience with vinyl flooring in the past, I've fine three floors if my house with wood look vinyl flooring which worked well, these, not so much.

Nope! I use mine on white/cream colored carpet, and there is no stain whatsoever.

It will give a deep shine and protective coat to any hardwood floor, but will do nothing to the stains. They will be visible pretty much as they are now thru the protective coating.

Yes, I would think so. And if the vinyl tiles were laid well - no bumps or humps or wide gaps between tiles - the vinyl plank flooring should look fine. If you're worried about the glue adhering to the old tiles, don't. Whatever the glue is, it's amazing.

I didn't stain but I painted them. I do believe they would come out very nice. Very good quality for a reasonable price. Enjoy

I can't say for sure, but I have used them and washed them and I don't see any stains on them so far. At this price, It might be worthwhile to try a dozen and see how it works.

Krista: I have used my mat on pale green carpet for several years and no stain has resulted from use. Hope that helps. Ralph

I've experienced the staining. Recommend wiping the face of the pads wit mineral spirits before using.

The problem with most floor coatings is getting them to adhere over the long haul. I don't think stain would be a problem but the coating on top like clear coat and wax may be. When I apply it on other than a new floor I use a floor grinder to be sure and provide a keyed surface after filling all the cracks. This coating is very industrial - it is opaque grey - it is great in a garage but I am not sure I would use it in another room especially if it was stained already.

Yes, I believe they will, however I would recommend a pumice stone for the initial cleaning, as I am sure you would use up several of these units cleaning large amounts of stain. They are very good for daily or weekly maintenance depending on your water hardness.

Sorry, I can't answer your question. I returned them because they did not have the dark oak stain as stated in the description.

they should work okay (because they do not need to be cured in the oven). however, do not apply too thick because the stain might crack.

There is no mention of being able to paint or stain, and as they appear to be nylon or something similar, and high gloss, the only way I would try it is to rough the surface with sandpaper and try a Krylon spray paint for plastics. A paint store may know by looking at it.

It depends on the depth of the stain. These remove an extremely small layer. You also need to seal granite every 6 months to avoid stains.

I think if its tile floor or vct tile no problem but if its mastic glueNo you need to use remover like a striper so you can stain

I really don't know whether they are rubber or plastic. Except for the kitchen and the breakfast room, our floors are all carpeted and I have not noticed any type of residue or marking on either type of flooring.
