    Tooth paste because it contains baking soda and has a bit of abrasive in it. Mild soaps are great for cleaning surfaces, but do little to scrub away deep seated dirt as there designed to be mild. Use some whitening toothpaste and coat the area. Let it sit for 15-20 mins then scrub it with and...

    Happy to hear, just have patience. Rushing will make the job sloppy and risk ruining the sole. Keep the session to about 2 30mins sessions per she, on a per day basis. I learned the hard way and completely destroyed a pair of nds 2006 fire reds. So I speak from experience, it was heart breaking...

    40 volume works well, just be sure to keep the sessions to 20-30mins. Any longer you risk possible sole separation. Keep as much of the sauce away from the traction pods and the carbon fibre as possible. Less is more for the best results you want to glaze the sole. A light coating works best. Do...

    Nail polish remover works great, if you take your time. Be gentle and rub softly and in circular motions using a cotton ball. Repeat until you get the results you want.

    Try tooth paste, worked well for me or nail polish remover, be careful and use it sparingly. It contains acetone that can strip paint. So be gentle use a little bit and take your time.
