Quick Guide to Angelus CleanersUpdated 2 months ago
Keeping your shoes in top condition is easy with the right products and techniques. Follow these steps to clean your shoes using Angelus Direct's range of cleaning products:
Step 1: Choose Your Cleaner
- For general cleaning: Use Angelus Easy Cleaner for a safe and effective way to clean dirt, grime, and light stains from leather, suede, nubuck, canvas, vinyl, and other materials.
- For light and on-the-go cleaning: Angelus Foam Tex is your go-to choice. It’s gentle on the materials but tough on the toughest stains, making it perfect for a nice quick clean.
- For deep cleaning: Angelus All Purpose Foam Cleaner is your go-to choice. It’s very strong on heavy oil and grease stains. Suggested as a last resort or on tough leather boots.

Step 2: Prep Your Shoes
- Remove laces and set aside. You can clean these separately by soaking them in a mixture of water and a small amount of the cleaner of choice.
- Use a dry brush (like the Angelus Shoe Cleaning Brush) to remove any surface dirt or debris from the shoes.
Step 3: Cleaning Process
- Apply your chosen cleaner to a brush or cloth.
- For the Easy Cleaner, put it directly into a bowl.
- For Foam Tex, pump the foam directly onto the brush.
- Gently scrub the shoes in a circular motion, focusing on soiled areas. For delicate materials like suede or nubuck, use a softer brush like the Angelus Premium Cleaning Brush to avoid damage.
- Wipe away the foam or cleaner with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue.
Step 4: Drying and Conditioning
- Allow your shoes to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Once dry, for leather shoes, apply Angelus Lustre Cream or Mink Oil to condition and restore the leather's natural oils. For suede and nubuck, use Angelus Nubuck and Suede Kit to revive the material's color and texture, or spray down with Angelus Mink Oil Aerosol.
Step 5: Protect Your Shoes
- To prevent future stains and make cleaning easier, spray your shoes with Angelus Water & Stain Repellent once they're clean and dry. This provides a protective layer that repels liquids and stains.
