chrisorros Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 Anyone ever have this? Customer has asked me to remove the marks. The marks are under the patent finish. Any ideas how this can happen? Or how the marks can get there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 Try a bit of white spirit, then a good polish with Mr Sheen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisorros Posted October 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 Tried that Michael but thank you for the advice. This is a very deep stain. I can't figure out how it could get so deep under the patent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 If white spirit not working then probably had it, unless any of the specific patent cleaning products works. Don't look expensive so probably better off getting new shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kobblers Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 We use acetone on patent. Dunno if it'll work in your case, though. Rick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 Never managed to remove stains like these. It's like they get bruised and it bleeds through from the back. Some say nail polish remover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bren Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 nail varnish remover and a cotton bud but those marks look really bad. If white is showing then they're goosed without re-colouring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
