I have stored some items in plastic bags on my vinyl floor. The printing on the plastic bags has transfered to my floor, how do I remove the printing without damange to my floor?

You have to be careful with vinyl because it is subject to chemical reactions, especially if it does not have an asphalt tracking warranty. I would first attempt a 50/50 solution of hydrogen peroxide and water, which is milder than chlorine bleach. If this does not work please post back. Leave the solution on for at least 30 min.
