Cover. Put a drop cloth over the floor to protect it form
drips and do the same for any furniture nearby 
Clean. Make sure that the area is free of dust and dirt. A
barely damp rag will easily do the trick. Let it dry. 
Open a window for ventilation. 
Coat. The trick to repairing stains is to seal them so
that they don't bleed through the new paint job. Use an
oil based sealer and a regular wall brush. A pouncing
method will help you blend the repair work easily. With
very little paint on your brush simple bounce the bristles
up and down over the stain until it is completely covered.
Let the primer dry. Don't worry if you can see some of the
stain through the primer, once it's sealed it won't bleed
through the paint.
