Sand the entire floor, vacuum/tack off, and evenly apply stain per
directions. An oak stain is light in color. I recommend testing the
stain before you apply it. Two coats of polyurethane finish is
recommended.

try pink solution, in various strenths... let soak for a while.. it
loves to gobble up oil, for some reason. I use it on all the wood
floors i clean. There is another version of this, caleld Mother's
Choice, which has a bit of pumice in it, and is stronger, however, the
regular pink should work fine. I LOVE THE STUFF>
