UGGs are highly popular shoes that offer optimal warmth and comfort. However, without proper care and cleaning, pencil stains can mar the fabric surface of your UGGs. There are several ways to remove pencil marks, but it’s important to remember that the best method will depend on type of material that the shoe is made of.

Method 1: Erasing

If the pencil mark is still intact, you may be able to simply erase it with an eraser. A kneaded eraser is generally recommended because it won’t damage the fabric’s surface. Start by rubbing the eraser over stain in a gentle, circular motion. Continue until the stain has been removed. It’s important to not press too hard so as to avoid damaging the fabric.

Method 2: Laundry Detergent and Water

For slightly tougher pencil marks, you can try this method. Start by mixing a few drops of laundry detergent with a cup of lukewarm water. Dip a soft cloth or brush into the mixture, then gently rub the pencil stain with the cloth or brush. Once the stain has been removed, rinse area with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

Method 3: Baking Soda and Water

If the previous methods don’t work, you can try using baking soda and water. Start by mixing a teaspoon of baking soda with a cup of lukewarm water. Dip a soft cloth or brush into the mixture, then gently rub the pencil stain with the cloth or brush. After the stain has been removed, rinse the area with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

Method 4: Nail Polish Remover

For tougher pencil stains, nail polish remover can be used. Start by dipping a cotton ball in the nail polish remover. Gently dab the cotton ball on the pencil stain, taking care not to damage the fabric’s surface. After the pencil mark has been removed, rinse the area with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

Conclusion

Pencil stains can be frustrating to remove, but the four methods outlined above should help you get rid of them. Remember to always test any cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area of your UGGs before applying it to the entire surface. This will ensure that the cleaning agent won’t damage the fabric.
