When cleaning up pencil marks, you’ll want to use a gentle technique that won’t damage the delicate material of your patent leather pumps. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to remove pencil stains from your shoes:

  • Start by dabbing stained area gently with a soft cloth dampened with warm water.
  • If this doesn’t do the trick, move on to using a mild soap solution. Mix a teaspoon of soap with a cup of warm water and gently dab the affected area with a soft cloth.
  • Once you have removed pencil marks, rinse the area with clear water. Then use a dry cloth to soak up any excess moisture.
  • Finally, apply a leather conditioner to the area to replenish the oil in the leather.

That’s it! With these simple steps you can easily remove pencil stains from your patent leather pumps.
