Nope. Either pull it or leave it. The oil in the dispenser was aggressive enough that it ATE THROUGH the finish (ever heard of Orange Oil cleaners?? Yah. It is so aggressive it is used as a FLOOR STRIPPER...that's how nasty oils can be).

The pale splotch is the loss of the finish. The whitish ruffle around the edges = the finish that has been eaten but is still attached to the plank.

You can try a permanent marker that is nicely matched to the floor. Feather in some of the colour and you should be OK.

Agreed - I had a little spot on my LVP and used a couple different colored floor markers and covered it right up, only noticeable if you look very close. You’re very nice to want to fix that for the next owner! It’s such a small spot. Do you have extra LVP, if so, I would leave for the next owner, in case they need it in the future.

Thank you for your responses! I think we have some extra planks in the basement that I’ll leave out for the new owner. In the meantime, I’ll try the marker to cover up the light edges. Thank you!
