What You’ll Need

  • Mild detergent
  • White cloth
  • Hydrogen peroxide (3%)
  • Baking soda

Before you get started, make sure that sandals are completely dry.

Step One: Dilute Stain

Dilute the stain by dabbing it with a damp cloth. Be careful not to rub it in as this will worsen the stain.

Step Two: Apply a Detergent Solution

In a bowl, mix together one teaspoon of mild detergent and one cup of warm water. Dip the white cloth into solution, wring it out, and apply it to the stain.

Step Three: Use Hydrogen Peroxide

Use hydrogen peroxide (3%) on a cotton rag and apply directly to the stain. Allow the rag to remain for five minutes before rinsing with cold water.

Step 4: Try Baking Soda

Mix baking soda with a tablespoon of water until it forms a paste. Apply the paste to the stain and let it sit for 15 minutes. Rinse with cold water and repeat if necessary.

Conclusion

With these simple steps, sweet wine stains on sandals can easily be removed. Now you can enjoy your wine without worrying about getting a nasty stain on your favorite pair of shoes!
