Can anyone suggest on ways to remove a rug backing stain off of no-wax vinyl flooring?
I had no idea rubber backed rugs would stain vinyl floors. I have tried bleach and ammonia and have had no luck. Any suggestions of other things to try? Maybe a floor stripper?
Oh and I did try Mr Clean Magic Eraser. It didn’t do jack!
I actually just found that acetone, pure, works pretty well. I got most of it off but still looking for suggestions on how to get it off completely.

Try degreaser. If you use any chemicals that are harsh, like the floor stripper you mentioned, you have a HIGH risk of permanently damaging your flooring.
