Hi,

Be careful with this, that it doesn't damage the surface.  I use it on
Formica at home.  (But our westy doesn't have any Formica ... are you
sure it's not painted wood?)

Mix about 1/8 C of bleach in a pint of water.  Dip a paper towel into
the solution and lay it over the stain.  Check every five minutes to
see if that gets rid of the stain.
