How can you get cigarette burns out of rolled out linoleum flooring?

Filed under: burns 

or at least cammoflauge them not to be so noticeable? The flooring we have is black with specks of white and if the lights hits it a certain way you see the cigarette burns.

Depending on how large an area was damaged, you may not be able to do anything. But if it is a small spot, you can possibly, carefully, shave down that uneven area, and coat it with clear polyurethane or even dab a bit of clear nail polish on it. If this is indeed an expensive floor, a professional could come and cut the area out, and replace it with the same flooring. Don't attempt that yourself. If you aren't satisfied with a pro's job, you don't pay for it, but if you screw it up yourself, you'll feel even worse than looking at the original marks.
