About 5 yrs ago I laid down some deep blue Linoleum tiles but they soon faded. Has anyone a method to bring the colour back to them or at least make them more presentable. THanks

Is a wall mural a silly way to give a room some life?

Hi stevie,
before having laminate flooring we had cushionfloor/ linoleum. I used Johnstons 'Klear' Make sure the surface is absolutely clean and dust free apply a layer of Klear with a dampened cloth well rung out. Hands and knees job! I use to use those yellow polishing cloths for the job, nice & soft make sure its had a couple of washes to get rid of the yellow dye before using. You can do a room in sections, wait for it to dry then move furniture back. Two coats looks even better, wait for first coat to dry.

Thanks Sachs. Will this bring some of the colour back or is it just a protective ?

stevie,
it's like laminating a picture, brings the colour out if you see what I mean. try a small area & see what you think. Check also for slip resistance. I never had any problems .
