If the shoe polish stain is fresh, you can typically reduce or remove the stain by applying a cleaning solution. You can make a homemade solution using a teaspoon of white vinegar in two cups of warm water. Blot the stained area of your clothing with a clean cloth dampened in the vinegar solution.
For tougher shoe polish stains, you will want to pre-treat the affected area prior to washing your clothing. Begin by applying a stain remover directly on the stain, like a laundry pre-treater. Allow the pre-treatment to set for a few minutes before washing item.
Wash garment as you normally would, preferably in cold or lukewarm water. Make sure to use a gentle detergent designed for delicates, and try not to use too much detergent, since this can leave residue on fabric that may cause discoloration.
After the garment has been washed and dried, inspect the area to determine whether or not the stain has been removed. If it’s still visible, repeat Steps 1-3 until stain is gone. If the stain hasn’t budged after multiple attempts, consider taking the garment to a professional cleaner.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
