My rubber backed area rugs have discolored my vinyl floor is there any way to get the color back?








The non-skid pads are good,(the flat rubbery ones) but if you live in an area of high humidity they sometimes leave a residue on hardwood that has to be scraped up. There is another type called Millenia. It is a felt pad like the older style hair and jute pads. This type of pad is the very best you can get for hardwood as it is a felt and will not scratch the wood. But it will slide some so for small rugs like runners I usually wont recommend
