Say Goodbye to Hours of Cleaning
As England kicks off their Euro 2024 campaign, many children in the UK are gearing up to play like their football heroes. However, parents spend an average of 26 hours cleaning muddy football boots. To ease this burden, the Queen of Clean, Lynsey Crombie, shares her top tips.
Quick Fixes and Deep Cleans
For quick post-game clean-ups, Crombie recommends bashing off mud, wiping with a warm soapy cloth, and using dry hair shampoo or talc powder to keep boots fresh. This simple routine takes less than 5 minutes and can save parents 22 hours a year. For a deeper clean, Crombie provides a step-by-step guide.
The Cleaning Process
Crombie advises starting by letting mud dry before removing it with a brush or knife. Taking out laces and insoles, rinsing boots with cold water, and scrubbing with a soapy solution are essential steps. Cleaning the soles and studs, rinsing well, and drying with care are crucial for maintaining pristine boots.
