Cleaning Scuff Marks

• 1). Moisten a soft cloth with nail polish remover or lighter fluid. Scrub the scuff mark with the moistened cloth to remove or fade the majority of the mark.
  
  
• 2). Rub an art gum eraser on the lingering scuff marks. This effectively removes the last of the scuffs, but it can dull the appearance of your shoes.
  
  
• 3). Dab a dime-sized amount of shoe polish or conditioner onto a soft cloth. Rub it in, bringing the shoes to a shine.
  
  

Covering Up Scuff Marks

• 1). Dip a fine-tipped paintbrush in acrylic paint that matches the shade of your shoe. It's imperative to get as close a match as possible.
  
  
• 2). Dab the paint over the scuff marks, covering them in a thin layer. Allow to dry for 30 minutes.
  
  
• 3). Add another thin layer of paint over the first. Your goal is to reinforce the paint layer you've already applied to not only cover the scuffs, but create a shield so the paint won't chip off.
