If you have kids, you have had to clean the sides of shoes. I recently stumbled upon a hack for this that works so darn well. It had me yelling “where have you been all of my life?!?!?” So today I thought I would share that hack with you all. Trust me. You will want this information for your shoes and the shoes of your kids.
Enter in a super simple solution that you probably have at home…..nail polish remover. Yep that is right! I was skeptical at first. Would this stuff really be able to clean the sides of shoes? I broke out some cotton pads and did a little experiment. I cleaned one shoe with the nail polish remover and left the other alone. This way you could really see what a difference this little wonder can make to all of your shoes.
The results are below and they are ASTOUNDING! Seriously these shoes have not been this clean since they were new! A little nail polish remover and it looks like we have a new pair of kicks. Need to buy the kids new shoes for back to school? Try giving their old ones a shine! You may just find they have more usable shoes than you thought! And all with a bit of nail polish remover. I am in awe. Clean the sides of shoes with nail polish remover and you will never go back!

Hi, Angie!! Amazing!!
Such a simple and quick idea! Thank you so much!! 😉
great idea! Quick question…if it gets on the fabric will it take off the color? I’m asking because I have a few ideas in mind. If they work out I’ll send you pics and steps. Thanks for the info and your sights rocks!
I wasn’t perfect with my application and didn’t notice any fading on the fabric. Might want to test it before diving in!
oops for the typos!
Ok, so I’m walking away form the PC to try this right now! Thanks

A Mr. Clean Magic Eraser works the best in my opinion.
