Vinyl Floor wearing away with bleach

March 23rd, 2012

Q: I have a relative old vinyl floor on my kitchen floor but I noticed it started wearing very fast and breaking when I started using bleach to clean it. Is that a coincidence? or is the bleach attacking the material?

A: It looks to me that you have ?hit the nail on the head.? I do think the bleach has ate in the plastic based surface and now has worked its way to the sub layer in the vinyl.
