When crayons make their way onto your favorite Superga shoes, don't panic! There are a few different methods you can use to get rid of those stubborn marks.
Step 1: Use Ice
The first thing you can try is to place an ice cube in a plastic bag and place it over the crayon marks. Leave it there for about 10 minutes. The wax should harden up, allowing you to easily scrape it away with a dull knife or spoon. This method works best on fresh stains.
Step 2: Use White Spirit
If the wax has already set into the material, you'll need to use something a little stronger. White spirit is a great option. Put a small amount of white spirit on a cloth or cottonball and rub it gently into the stain. After a few minutes, you should be able to wipe away the stain. Be sure to rinse the area thoroughly with warm water when you're done.
Step 3: Use Baking Soda
Baking soda is an easy and effective solution to problem crayon stains. Simply mix baking soda with a few drops of water until it forms a paste. Then, use a soft cloth to rub the paste onto the affected area. Let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing it off with warm water. Repeat as needed until the stain is completely gone.
Step 4: Use Laundry Detergent
Laundry detergent is an effective way to remove crayon stains from Supergas. Soak a cloth or sponge in a sink filled with warm water and laundry detergent. Rub this onto the stain and leave it for about 10 minutes. Then, use a nylon brush to scrub away the excess product. Rinse the area with warm water when you're done.
By following these steps, you should be able to remove unsightly crayon stains from your Supergas in no time!
