Help - how to revive chemical burned lawn!

I was was cleaning out my bin and stupidly put it on the lawn to dry (for no more than 10 minutes!) 

The disinfectant I was using (either Zoflora or Method antibacterial) looks like it has left chemical burns on my lawn. 

How can I help my lawn? 

Thanks in advance

    Your patch will survive. Give it a light rake over the area, and water the area. It should grow back in a few weeks' time.

    I’d suggest 4 buckets of water to flush any residual chemicals then just leave the grass to recover.

    If there is no sign of regrowth after 4 weeks consider scratching the surfaceof the soil, reseeding and keeping it watered until the seed germinates
