Shoe repair said they could not do anything. I tried tooth paste and other stuff on my Athena Alexander patten leather sandals trying to get off scuff marks. Read this site and tried nail polish and yes it came off. I would of thought it would have ruined them but it worked! Thank you

Thanks! The nail polish remover worked great on my leather shoes. They had scuffs from 4 yrs ago from my wedding and it took them right off! Now i can wear them again!

The nail polish remover worked like magic on my leather shoes. The same would trash a synthetic material.

I tried using nail polish remover and they got worse. But then I tried tooth paste and that worked quite well.

I have used one of those scrubby sponges (like Mr. Clean brand) and the scuff marks disappear!

Target has their proprietory version of Mr. Clean erasers for less money. Ditto for Dollar General stores.

How do I remove scuff marks on children's white leather shoes and the rubber sole? J.G.

Answers:

RE: Scuff Marks on White Leather Shoes

I remember using fingernail polish remover on white shoes when I was younger. Use very little on a cotton swab or Q-tip and gently rub the black marks. They should rub off. NEVER do this on black patent it will not work. It leaves a bad dull smear. I hope this works for you! (06/24/2005)

I use rubbing alcohol. (06/25/2005)

RE: Scuff Marks on White Leather Shoes

Try using toothpaste. A white-colored toothpaste will work best. Squeeze some on a damp washcloth and rub the paste into the area containing the scuff marks. May take a little elbow grease to make the marks disappear, but the toothpaste has just enough abrasive in it to do the job. My mother used to use this on my white shoes when I was young.

Mr. Clean Magic eraser is great for getting out scuff marks. (07/10/2005)

I tried the alcohol and it worked! The scuff marks came off instantly and it did not require scrubbing. Furthermore, it did not remove the color. Thank you Sara! (04/18/2006)
