Step 1: Dab at the Stain with a Paper Towel

Start by lightly blotting the stain with a paper towel or a cloth. Don’t rub the stain as this will only spread it. Continue dabbing until most of the excess shoe polish has been removed.

Step 2: Apply Spray Laundry Detergent

Once the majority of the stain has been removed, spray a laundry detergent solution onto the stain. Let detergent sit for a few minutes before scrubbing gently with a soft brush. This should help to loosen up the remaining shoe polish.

Step 3: Rinse with Cold Water

Finally, rinse the stained area with cold water. This will help to rinse away any detergent residue and should remove the last traces of shoe polish. Once finished, hang or lay the sleepwear flat to air-dry.

Conclusion

Removing shoe polish stains from sleepwear doesn't have to be a hassle. With these three simple steps, you can easily get rid of unwanted stains and keep your sleepwear looking as good as new.
