Items Needed

White vinegar
Laundry detergent
Sink or bowl large enough to fit your wallet
Cloth for scrubbing
Soft toothbrush
Dish soap
Paper towels

Step 1: Preparing Your Wallet

Before you start the cleaning process, make sure that all the contents of your wallet have been removed. This includes credit cards, cash, coins, receipts, and anything else that may have been stored in it. You don't want these items to get wet or damaged during the cleaning process.

Step 2: Soak Wallet in White Vinegar Solution

Fill a sink or bowl with warm water and white vinegar. Make sure there is enough water to fully submerge your wallet. Let it soak for 10-15 minutes while the vinegar breaks down diaper stains.

Step 3: Scrub Wallet with Detergent and Cloth

After the wallet has finished soaking, take it out of the water and place it on a cloth. Apply a bit of laundry detergent on the areas that have diaper stains and rub gently with a cloth. This will help break down the stain and make it easier to remove.

Step 4: Use a Soft Toothbrush to Remove Stubborn Stains

If the stains still remain after scrubbing with the cloth and detergent, try using a soft toothbrush to gently scrub the area. Be sure to use gentle circular motions so that you don't damage the leather or fabric of wallet.

Step 5: Rinse With Dish Soap and Water

Once you are done scrubbing wallet, rinse off any remaining soap or detergent. Use a mix of dish soap and water to make sure all the residue is completely removed. Rinse off until the water runs clear and then dry off with paper towels.
