What happens if you put colour-renovating shoe polish on suede shoes?

Has anyone out there ever tried??... I don%26#039;t mind if the suede texture goes completeley flat... (it%26#039;s sort of flat now).


I ruined a brand new pair of pink suede costume shoes by dropping a spot of cooking oil on one them - it cleaned off OK with a suede cleaner, but a bit of colour came off too....


Cannot find fusica pink suede dye on web or ebay search.


I know that renovating leather shoe polish is great for reviving colour on leather shoes and it%26#039;s available in pink - I also found pink satin shoe dye and silk paint... wonder if this might do alternatively?





P.S.


From experience I know that suede shoes never really regain that %26#039;as new%26#039; velvetyness with wire/rubber brush... and yes, I know that suede shoes in a pink shade would go grubby %26amp; manky in time but I haven%26#039;t even worn them yet!! *sniff*


...Feibing do suede shoe dye in red and burgundy ... but I want PINK shoes!!!

What happens if you put colour-renovating shoe polish on suede shoes?
Try to find a spray type dye. Use a paper and cut it to match the spot. Then spray the area to be dyed. When it is completely dry, brush it with the suede brush.





If it not a spray, then lightly dab the area with the dye. Or have you considered taking the shoes to a shoe repair shop?





Some western wear shops have shoe repair people available or a saddle shop might have more ability to find the right dye for your shoes.
Reply:You can dye the suede shoes with leather dye available from some craft stores. They use it on making leather belts etc.
