Berries are some of the sweetest treats you can enjoy in the summertime. Unfortunately, they can also leave behind sticky red or purple stains on the surface of your boots. Don't despair - there are simple steps you can take to easily get rid of these pesky marks.
Step 1: Blot the Stain
The first step is to use a paper towel or rag to blot up as much of berry stain as possible. You don't want to rub it in further—just gently blot at the affected area to absorb some of the excess liquid.
Step 2: Soak with Warm Water
The next step is to soak the stained area in warm water for 15-20 minutes. This will help to loosen stain and make it easier to remove.
Step 3: Apply a Cleaning Solution
Once area has soaked, use a soft cloth to apply a cleaning solution. For most types of boots, a mixture of 1 part white vinegar to 2 parts warm water should be sufficient. Gently rub the solution into the stain until it begins to fade.
Step 4: Rinse and Dry
Finally, rinse the stained area with clean water and dry it off with a soft cloth. Be sure to inspect the area to make sure all traces of the stain are gone before putting your boots away.
By following these easy steps, you'll be able to quickly and easily remove berry stains from your boots. Now you can enjoy summer treats without worrying about stains!
