Our Vinyl floors have changed colors. The floor was WHITE.And now it's gone a light brown/yellow.We do mop the floors. At least once a week. Why is this happening?
it yellowed from under. it is from water damage, improper glue or an incorrect situation when installed, or you put a rug down that discolored it. quit mopping.
You need to use ammonia on them. Let it soak and then scrub it good. If that doesn't work dry bleach (never mix bleach with ammonia). Finally try brillos,, but the problem with that is that you have to get down on your hands and knees. You have buildup from cleaners, dirt, etc...
It may be sun damage, but that would indicate a very cheap vinyl. More likely it is chemical reaction to what ever it is coming in contact with unless it i ground in dirt, which is unlikely.
Please, don't tell me it's Armstrong floors? I had this happen to mine after four months, I bought the tile from Lowes, it was Armstrong flooring. They yellowed after four months. You could see it was in the photo under the clear top layer of the tile. I took samples back to Lowes, talked with three supervisors, after three months of haggling, they sent me to Armstrong. Armstrong took samples. They said it was sun damage, after I told them the sun don't shine under my table, there were no windows in my kitchen, they said it was somehow my fault. After I told them I have laid tile for 47 years, when it was linolium, they then changed their story again. I could see where this was leading, I went back to Lowes, it was over their time limit now so, they more or less asked me to leave their store or else? None of my complaints were answered to whomever I contacted. Now, after three years, we painted our floors, they came out beautiful. I will never buy from Lowes again and, it won't be Armstrong tile. By the way, I've laid more tile then most people have walked on.
