Simple Guide on How to Remove Salt Stains Off Uggs

May 1, 2010 by admin · Leave a Comment 

Very often new pairs of UGG Australia boots will come with a specialized cleaner ready for your use. However, in case you do not have the official cleaner available, there are other alternatives available. Plain water can be used to clean your UGG boots but it will unlikely get rid of all dirt and stains. You can also use vinegar and cornstarch to free your footwear of stain and grime. In addition, it may come as a surprise that even salt can be used to clean your boots, though salt often in many cases is the cause of stains.

When you find yourself in a situation where there are salt stains in your UGG boots, then you should not panic for it can be remedied easily. First, you will need a bowl, a rag, two cups of lukewarm water, one tablespoon of dish detergent. You should also grab a soft shoe brush or an old toothbrush.

First inspect your footwear and observe the majority of salt stains that have collected externally. Brush off the salt stains using your brush, and try to loosen any salt debris from the surface of your UGGs.

Create a solution of part detergent and part lukewarm water. Dip your rag in the said solution and apply them over the salt stains on your UGG Australia boots.

Wipe off the problem area in a vigorous and brisk but soft motion using only one direction until the salt stain dislodges.

Put several paper towels or old socks inside your UGGs to reshape them. Just for the sake of safety, leave them in an area inside your house where there is good air ventilation. Alternatively, you can also opt to air dry or spin dry your UGGs. Just do not hang them in the clothesline or leave them outside your house under direct sunlight as this may cause shrinking.

Once dried and you noticed that there are still stains your UGG boots, you may try repeating the procedure of rubbing off your UGGs with your solution of soap and water until you are satisfied with the results or until your footwear is as good as new.

A word of added advise though, once a week, you should spray your boots with water repellent to prevent future damage to your footwear.

Your UGG Australia boots can last for a very long time if you take enough responsibility to take care of them and clean them thoroughly.

Your baby is also wearing the cutest UGG Australia boots to help him move forward. You know very well that sheepskin boots are comfortable enough to suit the delicate feet of your little one.

3. Rinse off using cold water.

Removing Wax from Ugg and Emu Boots

May 1, 2009 by admin · 1 Comment 

candle Removing Wax from Ugg and Emu BootsYou’re eating at your favorite restaurant and an accident at the table causes the candle to fall and melted wax spills on your UGG boots. Perhaps you dripped wax from a candle in your home or maybe you spilled wax while making your own candles. Regardless of how it happened, you now have a nasty wax stain on your favorite boots and have to find a way to remove it!

Wax stains are different than the ones caused by dirt, oil, and water. Because the wax hardens on the surface of the boot it will adhere in a way that makes cleaning much more difficult.

There are two main ways to approach removing a wax stain. One is to use cold and the other is to use heat.

Let’s look at cold first. If you apply ice to your boot, or even put it in the freezer, the cold will cause the wax to finish hardening and eventually constrict. This should make it easier to carefully and gently scrape the hardened wax off of your boot. Make sure you wrap your boot in a plastic bag before putting it in the freezer (to protect both your boot and your food) or, if it will not fit, use ice packs to freeze the area in question.

If the freezing does not work you could try applying heat to the wax. The heat will, of course, melt the wax and may cause it to spread, so you must use extreme caution when using this technique. Heat a small area of wax and try to absorb it before moving on to the next section. Using heat to remove the wax will likely still leave a stain on the suede – but the wax itself will be gone.

Use care in attempting to remove the wax stain from your UGGs and you’ll be able to save them from total ruin!

UGG and Emu Australia Footwear Cleaning and Conditioning

March 17, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment 

In regards to the care and cleaning of UGG and Emu Australia footwear, we would like to set forth the following guidelines for our sheepskin footwear.

DO NOT APPLY CLEANER & CONDITIONER DIRECTLY ONTO SHEEPSKIN FOOTWEAR

  • Hand wash only. DO NOT use a washing machine.
  • Moisten sheepskin footwear with clean, cold water.
  • Wet entire boot when cleaning to ensure equal drying or you could end up with visible water lines.
  • Dilute Cleaner & Conditioner with ½ water and ½ Cleaner & Conditioner.
  • Apply a small amount of diluted Cleaner & Conditioner to a clean wet sponge. DO NOT apply Cleaner & Conditioner directly onto footwear.
  • Gently scrub to clean entire area. Sheepskin has a delicate surface, which can be damaged if scrubbed aggressively, or with an undiluted concentration.
  • Rinse clean in clean, cold water; wring out excess water; lightly stuff with paper towels to hold shape; allow to dry naturally and slowly. DO NOT dry in direct heat or sunlight.
  • Once footwear is dry, lightly brush with a very soft suede/nubuck brush in one direction only.
  • Use a mixture of 2 tsp. baking soda and 2 tsp. corn flour to deodorize and soften the inside of the boots. If you wish, you can add a few drops of an essential oil to create a sweet scent. Shake the mixture into the boots and let it stand overnight. Shake the excess out the next day.

To help prevent initial staining of sheepskin footwear, we recommend using the Water & Stain Repellent as directed on the bottle prior to wearing.

  • Spray the sheepskin surface evenly until it appears wet, but not soaked.
  • Let the boots dry naturally for at least 24 hours. DO NOT dry in direct heat or sunlight.
  • Lightly brush in one direction with a very soft bristle suede/nubuck brush to raise the nap and natural tracking.
  • Please note that when properly used, UGG Australia Water & Stain Repellent with a suede/nubuck brush will help to raise the nap and natural tracking.

Please note that when properly used, UGG™ Australia Water & Stain Repellent and Cleaner & Conditioner will help to prevent and/or remove/reduce stains. Like any fine garment, sheepskin is delicate and not all stains can be prevented or removed.

With proper care and cleaning, you can expect your footwear to last longer, but we in no way guarantee that it will remove all stains nor prevent stains from occurring.
