Thank you! Great tips. Excited to see how our floors end up. You have a TON of orbs flying through this video. Has anyone else noticed?

What about sanding the floor and then staining the wood a really dark color to match the stains.

Hair developer is HYDROGEN PEROXIDE !!!

I used bleach. White King Bathroom gel. It worked - took a few goes over a few days. it gets lighter when the sun hits too.

TIP: Make a boundary of painters tape around the stained boards to keep the bleach off the unstained boards. And And treat the whole board ... the stained area first and longest and the rest of the board lightly at the last to blend in the colors.

You are fantastic. I have been looking for something like this forever...I appreciate your good, orderly, clear instructions...THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING...

This is absolutely AMAZING

A similar technique known as "retrobright" is used to lighten the plastic parts of old computers that have turned yellow. That involves putting the yellowed plastic in a clear plastic container with the chemicals and placing the container in the sun for a while, so it might be possible to accelerate the process on floors with a UV lamp.

Thank you ❤

Cracking up at the hair developer. I have that stockedddd 🤣 but seriously amazing job

Good job. You can also use chlorine and mix it up with some thickening agent. But please wear a FP3 mask to protect you face from the gases!

soooo peroxide?

Did these chemicals cause any bonding issues when you refinished the wood with polyurethane? I have heard that can be a problem when using chemicals to try and remove these black spots.

Wow. This video is seven years old, and people are still watching. You did an amazing job.

Question? Is the stains actually holding the odor and when you remove the stains you remove the odor?

Can't wait to try this!

yo. I am in a nightmare right now man. I have a 15 month old baby girl, a 93 yr old mother in law , her 4 cats, and a 90 yr old house with original hardwood floors with these black stains EVERYWHERE . not just from her cats, but from her as well. She has dementia and sometimes refuses to wear her diapers or just simply forgets to. I have spent the past almost 3 years trying to figure out how to get these floors done so my baby girl can have SOMEWHERE to walk and crawl and play, but, bruh. Just renting a sander is beyond expensive and I know the sanding won't remove the stains. I have decided to just paint and seal them after doing a quick screen and refresh or whatever it's called. my brain has turned to mush from all the dang research that has gone into this sh*t. thank u tho for posting ur VERY hard work , I truly appreciate you mama !! You have been super thorough and detailed and all of the things that usually go unappreciated, so, thank you.

Thanks so much. You saved me a lot of money. It makes sense hair developer is stronger than regular peroxide and stylists use it to lift the color off hair. 👌

yes, you did it .I tried several techniques before fing your video. I followed your well organized video with fabulous results. the only thing i would want to remind greater audience is to use the plastic tub you show to mix the product....

Thank. you!

Not. 38 years doing floors. Urine goes straight through the floor to the subfloor. You only touched the surface of the floor. The stain will come back in time always does. Only way to get rid of the stained boards is to replace them. FOR SURE.

Wow. The stains were bad at my house but I left it on for less than a minute each and it lightened up sooo much. Ima have to repaint the floor but I’d rather have to repaint the light spots than dark

Great Idea.

Was it able to remove the odors by chance great video 👍🏼

Sanding

excellent

This worked on my 100 year old floors and got me my deposit back! Want to note for others who may try leaving it on longer-- I was on a time crunch and had to leave in on for 8 hour chunks which did damage the wood a little i think and made it take stain unevenly. Still passable but could have turned out better if I hadstuck to the timeframe she suggests! Definitely take your time and do multiple shorter bleaching sessions for best result. Thank you for sharing!

A cat pissed on my $ 4.000 loudspeakers right which left a reddish stain on light colour wood ….

Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.

Just so you know 6 years after you made this video you are still saving hardwood floors. We were amazed how well this worked. We took a chance on your video after putting two laminate floors down. If we had seen your video before we did them we would have redone all of the rooms. Thanks for thinking outside the box. We were able to remove the stains and the floor turned out beautiful!!

Thanks a lot! I have multiple blackish stains from my elderly dog peeing on my area rug and soaking through to the hardwood. I tried regular peroxide and it barely touched those stains. I will be trying this method since it worked so well for you. Thanks again! Great job!

Vinegar

Wow u did a lot of work

Thank you for this great suggestion. I am going to try it.

How to remove pet urine stains from hardwood floor with hydrogen peroxide cameratest ua-cam.com/video/HztkRmp9-TA/v-deo.html it looks like that one works better....

thank you for the video, im considering purchasing a house witrh this problem in a room and this info was helpful

You the shit!!!

UGH...what a shame your beautiful floors got ruined by all that animal urine

Oxalic acid would have been cheaper and more effective. Bleach damages the wood, oxalic acid doesn't.

Brilliant work thinking outside the box with developer About to deal with a tenants mess they left behind after hiding it for 3 years! On top of the fact we had the floors done before they came! We have approx the same amount of area to treat

You're a genius! Thank you so much for your video!!

That is very good. I wonder If granulated swimming pool bleach would do that. There is a bleach that is used for making paper probably work best.

Great job on removing the urine stains, but I would have just put a new wood floor in the room.

Amazing work!

I mean... It worked. But I could have just tore that out and installed new oak in 4 hours. Now that side of the floor has the opposite problem. It's lighter than the rest. Definitely interesting that you got it to work though. I have seen people try many things and most of the time they just make it worse.

This makes total sense, because I remember my floor finisher telling me that the really deep dark 'urine' stains are really a mix of urine and the runoff from the dyes in the carpeting that once covered the floors, so even if something works to get out the urine stain, most people don't realize that there's also carpet dye to deal with if the pets once peed on the carpet. Great and awesome video! Thank you SO MUCH!!!

wow! the result is fantastic! thanks

Thank you so much

Excellent job! Good on you for thinking outside the box and discovering this creative solution!!

That's wayyyy to much work
