brown Laminate swallon with white mark

[linux44]

Hi guys,
I hope you are all doing well.

My home laminate has swollen and has a white mark on it as a result of water staying on it for a while .

Here are some pics




any suggestion on how to get rid of it? my laminate is whole piece and not an individual squares which can be replaced

I also have a slightly smaller mark on my kitchen wooden surface, any ideas on how to clean it
here is a pick




Many thanks in advance

If it is a water mark in the first pic rather than a reaction between the clear layer and the foil then it should be possible to remove. Baking soda and warm water/white vinegar will shift most things without damaging further. Rub on with a microfibre cloth, or sponge if you don't have one, and leave for about a minute before wiping dry with kitchen tissue.

In the second picture it looks like a sun bleaching stain, but is the other way round to how it would normally be so probably isn't. Was that caused by moisture too?

You should ask the moderators for this thread to be moved into the Woodworking section because there are some knowledgable folk who frequent there who may have some ideas.

if its water damage to the backing it will be raised to some extent yours looks flat so surface damage/discolouration more likely

x daves solution should be tried first
how old are the marks
