If you don't want to mark a hard floor, tire compounds need to be hard, the harder the better.

Soft compounds grip because they stick to the floor. Unfortunately, when you exceed the grip you then mark the floor when the tire slides.

A hard compound with tread (ie, mini pins r rally blocks) will give some grip as you get a small contact area and they can bite through any dust on the floor surface. I don't think you will ever get high grip levels this way, but racing will definitely be fun!
