wood flooring

May 03, 2007 2 Replies

I have a few very black spots in my wood floor from plants sitting on the floor and water weeping thru. I want to sand my floors but how do I get rid of these black spots.


I'm assuming you have light oak or maple In hardwood you don't. That black goes deep. Live with it or replace the pieces. Or......... I would sand the area and try to lighten up the spots and blend them in with a stain that would match the natural wood color and then put the clear finish back over the area when dry. Or........ Darken the entire floor color and then re-clear.
