It is permanently discolored. Use a furniture crayon in a matching color to cover it up.

It's eaten its way through. Get a matching wood paint for it.

Hardwood floors do not take well to water so always try to use a good wood floor cleaner instead when doing regular cleaning.

• The type of finish on your floors should determine what type of "repair" you will have to do.

• There are two products that work really well on wood furniture and will work on wood floors also.
• One product is Old English and it can be bought in several shades/colors so you should be able to match your floor color.
• Old English is sold at Walmart, Home Depot, Lowe's, Target etc and also on line but I recommend you look at the store so you can read the label and pick out your color.
• Old English is very easy to use just follow the directions on the bottle (use sparingly!).
• The product I like best is called Tibet Almond Stick Scratch Remover and can be bought on Amazon.
• This product is very easy to use (looks colorless) but covers spots of almost any color. I have never used it on a very dark color but I believe it will still work best (no mess/no spilling).

• I have supplied links to these products so please read before you think about trying this.
• Be sure to read the customer reviews also.

there's a chance the chemical permanently altered the varnish. Not much can be done about that save get a wood marker or revarnish the area ifyou can find what it is

you could try mayonnaise - I did that to resolve some coffee rings on a pretty nice piece of furniture I had - leaving it on for 5 or 10 minutes then rubbing it off. Sometimes before that adding a bit of baking soda + water paste as well.
