Best Way to Remove Rug Pad Marks from Floor

October 2nd, 2010

WD-40 could remove rug pad marks from floors

One of the main issues with the thinner, waffle looking rug pads is that they can leave marks on hardwood and all hard floors. We have witnessed numerous cases of people moving their rug for some reason or another only to find the design of the mesh rug pad imprinted on the floor. Many times, the only remedy for this is to refinish the floor.

We recently discovered that WD-40, the popular lubricant, can remove stubborn rug pad marks from floors. While not a very pleasant Saturday afternoon activity, the floor should be scrubbed with a rag and WD-40. For those lucky ones out there, the lubricant will remove any residue left by the rug pad. You may need to also gently scrape the area, taking care not to scratch the floor.

Once done using the WD-40, you should clean the area with Murphy’s Oil Soap. This will remove the residue of the lubricant and bring your floor back to life, as well as add a fresh smell.

To avoid a rug pad from marking your floor, you should replace the thinner, latex or adhesive rug pads with a more substantial rug pad made of either pure felt or a felt and natural rubber combination. Here, the rubber, as long as it really is rubber, is safe for all floors.
