Instructions
- Start by removing excess shoe polish with a soft cloth or paper towel. Avoid scrubbing stain as this can damage the surface of the shoe.
- Using a soft cloth, apply a small amount of warm, soapy water to the stained area. Use gentle circular motions to work the soap and water into the stain.
- Once the stain has been worked away, rinse off any soap with clean, warm water and a fresh cloth.
- Allow shoe to air dry completely before wearing it again.
Tips
- If shoe has any leather parts, use a specially formulated leather cleaner to remove stain without damaging the material.
- For fabric parts of the shoe, apply a solution of 1 part white vinegar to 3 parts water and gently scrub with a soft cloth.
- If the stain is still not coming out, try using a mild laundry detergent mixed with warm water.
