What You Will Need

  • Water
  • Dish soap
  • Soft cloth
  • Cornstarch (optional)

Step-By-Step Guide

  1. Blot the stain with a damp soft cloth to absorb as much of the ketchup as possible.
  2. Create a solution by mixing a few drops of dish soap in water, then apply it to the stain.
  3. Gently rub a soft cloth into the solution and onto the stain in circular motions.
  4. Rinse the area with a clean cloth and cool water.
  5. If stain is still visible, sprinkle cornstarch on the area and let it sit for a few minutes. Then, brush it away using a soft brush.

Tips

  • Always test any cleaning solution or product on an inconspicuous part of the suede before applying it to stain.
  • Do not rub too hard, as this could cause damage to the suede.
  • If the stain does not come out after the first attempt, repeat the steps listed above.
