How to correct dark lines and shiny spots on UGGS boots!

[pinevpples]

looking up solutions, I read a normal pink pencil eraser would work, since I don't have the block meant for suede and this is the shoe brush I had which I assumed would help. so it can be fixed by washing? all I've done it put water on the spot to try and make the darkness fade with it, but it just made it darker so I was hesitant to wash it. I read that if you rub it while wet or dry with heat it can be irreparable so I'm wondering if the spots are where I rubbed off the material. clearly I'm out of the loop though, lol

>>> looking up solutions, I read a normal pink pencil eraser would work, since I don't have the block meant for suede and this is the shoe brush I had which I assumed would help.

To brush, you will need suede Brush-3 and to re-nap or rejuvenate the nap you will need suede Eraser-5.
Both of these tools work with CleanPro-1.5 > Acidifier-20 system for general soil removal and removing the browning and dark lines.


>>> so it can be fixed by washing?

Not the typical “immersion” washing, rather cleaning by non-immersion or towel extraction with pH control solution. Such as cleaning with pH 1.5 with CleanPro-1.5 and rinsing with pH 2.0 with Acidifier-2.0 to correct the browning and dark rings or lines.

Tap water has an average pH of 7, thus higher than the pH value of the suede (pH 3 – 5) that is why it causes the browning or darkens it.

Heat will cause shrinkage to the “protein” suede fiber as the fatliquor (fat and oil) vaporize.
