The first thing you'll want to do is to make sure that your fabric is clean and dry before beginning your stain removal process. You can use a damp cloth to go over stained area if necessary. After cleaning, you should allow material to fully air dry before continuing.

Next, grab a suede brush and begin brushing affected area. Use short strokes in one direction and reapply pressure each time to ensure maximum stain removal. The brushing process should help to lift off any residual dirt or oils. Once you've finished brushing the area, take a second cloth and go over affected spot to remove any remaining dirt or oils.

The final step to getting rid of perspiration marks on suede is to pre-treat the stain with a spot remover specifically designed for suede materials. Apply the spot remover to affected area and let it sit for about five minutes. Once the time is up, you can use a damp sponge to gently dab away the solution and lift off the stain. Once the stained area is dry, you can touch it up with suede brush again, if needed.

With these simple steps, you can get rid of perspiration stains from your suede clothing and bring back its original look and feel!
