Whether it's a day at the beach or a lazy afternoon in the park, summer is a time for outdoor activities and fun in the sun. But if you're not careful, suntan lotion can end up staining your stylish Superga shoes. Fortunately, you can restore them to their former glory by following these few simple steps:
- Mix up a solution of one tablespoon of liquid dishwashing detergent in two cups of warm water.
- Dip a soft cloth into solution and wipe down the affected area until all the lotion has been removed.
- Allow the area to dry and then use a waterproof shoe protector spray to help seal against future staining.
If the stains are stubborn and won't come out easily, you may need to apply a paste made from baking soda and water. Gently rub the paste into the stain using a soft cloth and then rinse off with a damp cloth before drying. When the affected area is dry, you can treat your Supergas with a suede and nubuck cleaner to make sure they look their best.
With just a few simple steps, you can clean up suntan lotion stains and keep your Superga shoes looking good as new. After all, it doesn't matter how stylish your shoes are if no one can see them under a layer of stained material. So take the time to break out the detergent and make sure your Supergas are ready to shine this summer!
