class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Will_Bleach_Turn_My_White_Shoes_Yellow\"><\/span><strong>Will Bleach Turn My White Shoes Yellow?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Using bleach will definitely turn your white shoes yellow. Bleach is likely the first thing you think of when coming up with ways to clean your white shoes. It seems like the best choice. The reason it turns your shoe yellow is the chemical reaction that the bleach will cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your shoes will get those unsightly yellow stains that are most evident in white canvas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_You_Put_Shoes_in_the_Dryer\"><\/span><strong>Can You Put Shoes in the Dryer?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you can put your shoes in the dryer so that they will dry faster. This will guarantee that you can wear your shoes soon after removing the yellow stains. Just place your shoes inside the dryer with the low heat setting for about 30 minutes. In some cases, you might find that your shoes are still not quite dry after 30 minutes. All you need to do is to simply put the shoes back inside the dryer on the low heat setting again. Do this for another 30 minutes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Clean_Rubber_Shoes\"><\/span><strong>How to Clean Rubber Shoes?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To clean rubber shoes, any of the methods mentioned above will do. But you might specifically want to know how to clean shoes that have rubber soles. If that is the case, then you can use a magic eraser for the purpose. A magic eraser is effective because it is made of melamine foam. Rubbing it with water makes it a kind of foam. This foam has micro structures that act as sandpaper that helps remove stains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You now know that cleaning your shoes using bleach comes with a price.
