Rubber Sole Marks on Laminated Floor!! How can I remove them?

Help! My fella got some new shoes and they've made black marks on our laminated floors. How can I remove them without damaging my floor. I need something not too potent as we have a dog. Have already tried rubbing with a tennis ball and toothpaste. Something I could perhaps put in a mop bucket or that won't require too much rubbing as there are loads.

    Mr Clean Magic eraser

    Plain old white toothpaste, a little on a cotton rag and then wipe off with water.

    If you have white soled shoes just scuff it along the black marks.

    Try just using your finger to rub them off, worked in the past for me! Alternatively, get your fella to do it, after all, he left the marks there in the first place!

    WD40 will get them off, but you will have to wash afterwards with a bit of washing up liquid.

    Try just an ordinary eraser, that usually works quite well.

    go back to where you got it from and ask them if they can recommend anything. that's the best .

    polishing compound, (auto), works very well.
