Gravy stains can seem like an unsightly and daunting challenge, but you don't need to throw out your favorite sandals just yet! With the right cleaning products and techniques, removing those annoying gravy stains from your sandals can be easy and painless.

Tips for Removing Gravy Stains from Sandals

  • Start by blotting away any excess gravy from the surface with a paper towel or absorbent cloth.
  • Mix 2 parts warm water to 1 part mild detergent in a bowl. Soak a clean cloth in the solution and gently scrub at the stained area. Make sure you are gentle and avoid rubbing too vigorously, as this can damage the fabric.
  • If the stain persists, try mixing a drop of ammonia into the detergent solution and try again.
  • Once the stain has been removed, rinse the area with clean cold water and allow it to air dry naturally.

Additional Cleaning Tips

  • Spot test any cleaning solutions on an area of the sandal that is out of sight first, to ensure that the colors do not run or fade.
  • Ensure that your sandals are completely dry before storing them away, as dampness can cause mold and mildew.
  • For tough stains, consider taking your sandals to a professional cleaner.

These simple tips will help you restore your favorite sandals and get back to looking your best!
