Cleaning suede shoes
« on: June 20, 2013, 07:44:43 PM »
I've spilt some oil on a pair of suede shoes but can't seem to get rid of the mark it left. Anyone know how to do it?

Talcum powder maybe to absorb the oil? followed by a suede cleaning brush and good quality cleaner

Sorry Pam, Aitch, Gerty, etc, didn't mean to call you names.
Just thought your experience with life might have helped Pete with his dilemma  :-*

Actually no, they're grey - and once again we see how out of touch with the working man the Labour Party are.  :P

In the end I went for £2 worth of Clarks Suede Cleaner aerosol - all done in 10 minutes - as new. :)
