Step One: Wipe Away Any Excess

First, you'll need to wipe away any residual mouthwash that may still be present on the shoe. To do this, take a clean cloth, dampen it with cold water, and lightly dab the area where the mouthwash spilled. Do not rub or scrub! Gently dab the area until you've removed as much of the excess mouthwash as possible.

Step Two: Apply a Cleaning Solution

Once you've removed the excess mouthwash, you can mix up a simple cleaning solution to help remove the stain. In a small bowl, combine one tablespoon of dish soap and two tablespoons of white vinegar. Stir the mixture until it has a sudsy consistency. Then, apply mixture to the stained area with a clean cloth and let it sit for 10 minutes.

Step Three: Scrub the Stain

Next, use a damp, clean cloth to lightly scrub the stained area in gentle circular motions. This will help work the cleaning solution into the fabric of shoe and loosen any remnants of the mouthwash stain. Once you're done scrubbing, rinse off the cleaning solution and let the shoe air dry.

Step Four: Apply Stain Remover

If you're still noticing mouthwash stain, you can try using a stain remover. Opt for a product that is specifically formulated to tackle tough stains like mouthwash. Apply stain remover, let it sit for 10 minutes and then rinse it off with cold water. Allow shoe to air dry and then check to see if the stain was removed.
