even if i brush it with detergent soap with bleach and water…
are there any ways to whiten it back to its original white?
without using expensive commercial products
white shoe polish
Try Soft Scrub or a Magic Eraser. I find one of the two of those works for most things!
put bleach on it and scrubbb hardddd
well i kleand mine with bleach idk there are some chemicals we use to klean cloth seats and it works great on shoes
I wash mine in bleach. It seems to work. Don’t just scrub; throw them in the washer, or soak them in hot bleach water.
Have you tried using white shoe polish? My mother would clean her shoes with soap and water, and then used the polish.
SOME ONE TOLD ME TO TRY A LIL WATER & VINEGAR OR LEMON JUICE
BUT I NEVER DID SO GOOD LUCK.
I WOULD ASSUME YOUR BEST BET WOULD BE TO SCRUB WITH A MILD SOAP AND TOOTHBRUSH TO GET IN THE TINY SPACES AND PORES OF THE LEATHER BEFORE THROWING THEM IN THE WASH WITH SOME BLEACH AND WATER FOR A DEEP CLEAN THEN TOUCHING UP WITH WHITE SHOE POLISH AFTER DRYING. SHOE POLISH ISN’T THICK AT ALL AND BY WASHING THEM 1ST WOULD PREVENT DIRT FROM THE BOTTOM LAYERS FROM SHOWING THROUGH.
Put a cup of bleach with shoes in the washer and laundry soap and wash them! If that doesn’t work good enough I use fingernail polish remover. Good Luck!
if you have whitening toothpaste that would work really well
brush with a toothbrush for a while and add some bleach to make it white
Dish soap mixed with bleach, and put some elbow grease into it. Then, put tide to go on, and then repeat. Repeat as need until white
Blanco used to be the old method but now you use a white shoe cream after bleaching them to bring the shine back.
Soak them in BIZ.
this might sound weird..but if you do not have shoe polish, then go with tooth paste. The regular white tooth paste and brush them. Trust me it works! =]]
rubbing alcohol works good and then after use white tooth paste with a soft cloth.
White shoe polish.
i’m sorry hun! get navy blue. will they allow that? otherwise ask your coworkers for the secret
I would through them in the bleach load
soak them in bleach cold water for 30mins or so
If you press Alt-F4 on your key bored really quick a lot of times,it will solve your problems!!!!
We’ve been using white toothpaste, non abrasive/non baking soda type on our daughters shoes. It works pretty good.
Baking soda and bleach mixture along with hot water. Works well according to my oldest daughter. She just walked in and I asked her. She is a nurse herself.
Never mind all that stuff. Get some "Greased Lightning" at the dollar store and spray some on a rag. Wipe it on one part of the shoe first to make sure it’s safe and doesn’t wipe off the shoes polish. You will see how clean it gets. I’ve been using cleaning products for years, and depending on how you apply it, this is one of the best for taking that yellow smoke off of pretty things I buy at flea markets. And , yes, I have used it on shoe polish also, You just have to be careful since some shoe polish is better than others.
Well, first off – bleach can yellow cotton (learned that with my lab coat!) and leather too, so maybe that’s the cause.
If they are leather or vinyl, then white shoe polish should do the trick. If they are canvas, then try putting them in the washer with "Bluing"
