How to clean white shoes without damaging them

Start with the gentlest method

Brush away dry surface dirt. Use a soft cloth with a little water and a mild shoe-approved detergent for suitable washable materials. Test a small hidden area for discolouration first.

Be careful with all-purpose cleaners

Do not assume a general-purpose household cleaner is safe for suede, leather, dyed fabric or adhesive components. Avoid soaking shoes unless the manufacturer permits it. Rinse or wipe carefully, and air dry away from direct heat.

Avoid chemical mixing

Never mix bleach with ammonia, vinegar, acids or other cleaners. Wear appropriate protection and follow every product label. If the care label does not allow the product, don't use it.

For other household surfaces

Restore Hydro Clean offers all-purpose cleaner for compatible household cleaning tasks. Read the directions on the package and test compatibility before use.
