Last night I wore my champagne satin/chiffion Ambrosinas out for the first time and I was so sad this morning when I noticed that there were black stains on both heels from walking on the sidewalk downtown. We went to the Opera and we only walked from the restaurant to the theater and then back across the street for post-show cocktails.
I can't believe that I did this, but I decided that I would attempt to clean it myself. Low and behold..... SUCCESS!!!!
Here are pictures before and after. There was a slight scuff/rip on one heel and I even glued it back down. Still noticable, but definitely better than before.

Cleaning steps:
- Spray Shout on fabric and let it sit for ~2 minutes
- Use a WHITE cloth and lightly rub the stain and watch it disappear.
- Repeat if necessary.
- Wet the cloth with a little water and wipe over entire heel to make sure you don't have a Shout ring.
- I used Krazy Glue (has a little brush like White Out) and dabbed TINY bit of glue onto the heel where the ripped/scuffed fabric was. I gently laid the ripped satin back down and smoothed it out with tweezers.
