I've only had my vinyl and linoleum floors a short time but they are yellowing badly.I've used all kinds of cleaners,but I can't brighten them.I want to know if there's some kind of cleaner or something i could do to remove the yellowing,and bring back a newer clean look.

that oven cleaner... oven off...works real good just remember to have your house well ventilated and wear gloves and a mask... that stuff doesnt feel good in your lungs. BUT it works.

Try anything Orange - citrus laden. Spread it out over a 10X10 area with a sponge mop - scrubbing as you go. It will loosen everything up. Before it dries completely try anything aerosol made for spot cleaning, even carpet spot cleaning with another sponge mop. (I've even used WD-40!) After it looks great and before it dries rinse it with yet another mop with clean water. Go over it once more with the citrus product but this time apply it gently and generously and let stand dry for about an hour. Enjoy the upper body and arm workout!

have they been waxed? If so, ammonia will break down the wax so you can scrub it off the floor. If not waxed, sounds like some cheap linoleum.

Have you tried bleach?
