Step 1: Treat the Stain Immediately if Possible

If you notice the shoe polish stain soon after it happens, act quickly. First, take a cloth or paper towel and gently blot the stain in an effort to absorb as much excess polish as possible. Avoid pressing on the fabric too hard, as this can cause the polish to further penetrate the fabric and worsen the stain.

Step 2: Test a Stain Remover Before Washing

Once you’ve blotted out the excess polish, it’s time to find a suitable stain remover. Before using, however, do a patch test of remover on an inconspicuous spot of fabric first. This simple step can save you from causing damage to your clothes.

Step 3: Apply the Stain Remover

If the patch test reveals that chosen stain remover won’t hurt the fabric, you can then start applying it directly onto the stain itself. Use a cotton swab to dab the remover onto the affected area, applying gentle pressure to help lift the polish.

Step 4: Wash the Garment

Once the stain remover has had a chance to work its magic, you will need to wash the garment. Try to treat the garment as gently as possible while washing, and avoid wringing or scrubbing to prevent any further damage. Once washed, inspect the garment to make sure the stain is gone. When satisfied, hang the item up to dry.
