Hi guys

I accidentally dropped a fork with 2 drops of gravy on my missus's shoes.

was wondering how can she restore/clean it ?

She tried dish washing soap and now part of the suede is like scrapped off. I assume the dish washing liquid was too concentrated

Similar to shoe and colour below. Will try take a photo of the actual shoe

Come to terms with the fact that the gravy drops just cost you $2,000

Try a tiny dab of white toothpaste on the stain and let dry (days if need be) then wipe off with a damp cloth. Photos of said shoes would have helped.
