Russians were told about protecting shoes from reagents

In the press service of the Ministry of maintenance of territories and state housing supervision of the Moscow region told on Wednesday, December 11, how to protect shoes from technical salt, which can ruin shoes. This reagent communal workers use in winter to treat roads.

"When choosing protective sprays, it is important to take into account what material the shoes are made of - leather, suede or nubuck. There are special water-repellent products that form a protective layer on the surface of the shoe. 30-60 minutes before going outdoors it is desirable to treat the shoes," - told in the department in conversation with "Radio 1".

The Ministry advised to remove dirt and reagents from shoes immediately after a walk. In this case, for leather shoes it is better to use a soft damp cloth, and for suede - a brush or a rubber sponge.

"After washing, shoes should be dried at room temperature. Putting it on the radiator is not allowed, as it can lose its shape, dry out and get covered with cracks due to the aggressive effects of heat," - added in the press service.

If white streaks have formed on the shoes, remove them will help a special cleaner, which should be applied to areas where salt is present.
