Default Question about stain on linoleum floor

My daughter has a fairly new linoleum floor in her bathroom, she dyed a
couple of rugs to get the color she wanted, but the problem is when the
rug next to the bathtub got wet, it bled to the floor and left a light
spot about the size of a dinner plate. She has tried many things to get
it off, but no luck. Any ideas as to what could remove it without ruining
the floor. I don't really have any solution for her. Anyone? TIA

The dye may have penetrated the flooring. Nothing will get it out. Many
years ago I worked for a company that made a lot of small plastic parts
and we used to dye them with Rit. It was permanent. The parts were used
with alcohol and oil and it was not affected.


That's what I was afraid of, thanks.
