WE’VE all made the mistake of wearing white trainers to a festival or a night out, only to be filled with regret the next morning when they’re scuffed and stained.
Well, one woman has made her trainers look as good as new using just three denture cleaning tablets – and the results are amazing.
Writing for Mamamia.com, Ali Moore was inspired by a post on Australian Facebook group, Mums Who Clean, where one woman used the cleaning tablets to remove a stain from her sofa.
Hoping to get her sneakers looking sparkly, Ali used three Polident tablets, letting them dissolve in warm water before removing the laces from her trainers and popping them in the solution.
“While the rules for the hack aren’t strict, I left the shoes soaking in the solution overnight,” she wrote.
“In the morning I put them in the washing machine with some stain removing washing powder and a towel (so they aren’t annoyingly loud in the washing machine), and then put them out in the sun for the remainder of the day.”
By the time the trainers had dried outside, they looked brand new.
