Oil pastels are an art medium that is loved by artists of all ages. However, they can be quite messy, leaving behind stains that can be difficult to remove. Fortunately, with the right process and materials, it’s easy to get rid of oil pastel stains from Reebok shoes.

Steps to Take Before Cleaning

First, make sure you check shoe’s care label for its cleaning instructions. For example, check if the shoes require a hand wash or machine wash. If you can machine wash them, use a mild detergent like a Woolite or vinegar-based cleaner.

It’s also important to test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous part of the shoe to make sure it won’t cause any damage. It’s best to avoid using harsh chemical cleaners such as bleach and hydrogen peroxide.

Cleaning Process

Once you've determined the best cleaning method and materials, follow these steps:

  • Gently scrub stain with a soft brush or cloth.
  • If the stain is still visible, dampen a cloth with warm water and a mild soap. Wipe gently over the stained area.
  • Once you’ve removed as much of the stain as possible, rinse off the soap with a cloth dampened with warm water.
  • Once the area has dried, check for any residual stains. If any are still present, repeat the process until the stain is gone.

And now you know how to get rid of oil pastel stains from Reebok shoes. Remember to refer to the care label before cleaning and always test any cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous part of the shoe first.
