Thanks, Nick. The stain is a few weeks old, so I'm not sure if the talc will work, but I'll give it a shot. My guess is that he used a cleaner on the boots as the colour changed and the nap is lessened.

That should not happen.
Let us know the results.

Hi Nick,

the talc worked quite well. The spot reduced and is now barely noticeable.

Thanks for the tip.
