Successfully getting rid of ketchup stains from your Oxfords is no small feat. It's important to take the appropriate steps to ensure you don't cause more damage to the fabric or leather. So before tackling the stain, make sure you know the material your shoes are made of.
Instructions
- Start by removing excess ketchup by gently blotting the area with a damp cloth.
- If the fabric is water safe, create a solution of water and a neutral detergent. Use a soft brush, like an old toothbrush, to gently brush away the stain.
- If you’re dealing with leather Oxfords, use a damp cloth and gentle circular motions to remove ketchup. If the stain remains, take a cream cleaner and wipe away until gone.
- Once the stain is gone, allow the fabric or leather to air dry. If there's a lingering smell, use a baking soda mixture to help get rid of it.
Now that you've eliminated the stain, it's important to take preventative steps to avoid ketchup stains in the future. Make sure to always blot ketchup off of your Oxfords with a damp cloth, and keep Oxfords away from the reach of ketchup, french fries, and other sauces.
