My nephew had applied polyurethane to the bedroom floor and accidentally got some on the linoleum flooring outside of my bedroom. I tried taking it out with goof off and paint thinner to no avail. I decided to see if I could lift the stain by applying steam to it. So I kept applying steam with my Shark Steam cleaner for a couple of minutes. It seem to loosen the stain. I then used a small scraper, wrapped it in a Lysol wipe and was able to remove the stain with a little elbow grease. Thank goodness it was a small area here and there. Hope it works for you.
