Hi;

Purchased a rental home with carpet from the 60's. It has nice
hardwood floors underneath. There are two 12 inch spots where the wood
is stained black. Do I need to cut these boards out or is there a way
to bleach them out or stain them back to their original color?

Thanks
Pat


Try Oxycilic (sp) acid, available at good paint stores.
