mental notes one might consider beforehand: 1)use an old/unwanted paintbrush, the bleach ate mine... 2)make sure you do this outside incase of accidental bleach spillage (no one wants that now do we?) 3)do not touch your face/eye area whilst doing this for bleach does not feel nice 4)wear old clothes 'nuf said...

    let the bleach sit on the shoes for a few minutes until it has lightened. but don't leave it on to long...

  3. Small img 3181 1312492655

    take some wet paper towel or an old rag and wipe the areas that have bleach. this is to remove any extra bleach and stop it's effects.

  4. Small img 3200 1312492755

    place your shoes in the sun to dry or if you are impatient, i suppose you could use a hairdryer.

    while waiting for my shoes to dry i made shoelaces by cutting strips of an old tshirt and then put colored duct-tape on the ends
