Removing Water Spots on UGG Boots: A Step-by-Step Guide
In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps to effectively restore and waterproof your UGG boots that have been affected by stains or water damage.
Step 1: Gently Clean the Boots
Begin by cleaning the stained or water-damaged areas of your UGG boots. Use a soft cloth or rag dipped in warm water mixed with a mild dishwashing liquid. Gently scrub the affected areas, avoiding soaking the boots.
Step 2: Proper Drying
After cleaning, dry the boots naturally by stuffing them with paper towels or newspaper to maintain their shape. If you need to speed up drying, use a blow dryer on a low heat setting, but avoid high heat which can damage the suede.
Step 3: Remove Stains with Specialised Products
For more stubborn stains, you can use micellar water or a suede cleaning kit designed for UGG boots. Apply the product gently using a cotton wool ball or pad.
Step 4: Restore the Texture
Once the boots are dry, use a suede brush to gently buff the suede exterior all over. This will help raise the nap and restore the even coloring.
Step 5: Waterproof the Boots
To protect your boots from future water damage, spray them with a specialized UGG-safe waterproofer like SofSole Shoe Shield or SofSole Ultra Protect. Apply a thin, even coat and let it dry for about 30 minutes. Repeat for 2 coats total.
Remember to always test cleaning or waterproofing products on a small, inconspicuous area first to avoid discoloration. Regularly waterproof your boots before wearing them in wet conditions to prevent damage and staining.
By following these steps, you'll be able to restore the appearance of your water-damaged UGG boots and protect them from future damage. Happy cleaning!
