How to Scotchgard Uggs

If you buy a pair of Uggs, you should protect your investment. Keep your Ugg boots looking like new longer by spraying them with a fabric protector. Properly applied, Scotchgard will protect your leather Uggs and help keep your feet dry.

Things You'll Need

• Ugg boots
• Scotchgard Fabric & Upholstery Protector
• Old newspapers

Instructions

1. Try spraying a small amount of the Scotchgard Fabric & Upholstery Protector on your Ugg boots in an inconspicuous place. Let it dry and check to see whether the spray causes discoloration or color bleeding. If it does not, proceed to Step 2.

2. Go to a well-ventilated area such, as your garage. In nice weather, you can do this outdoors. Put your boots on several layers of newspaper. Hold the can of Scotchgard about 10 inches away from the Uggs and spray them evenly on all sides with a sweeping motion. Turn the boots as needed to cover them completely with Scotchgard.

3. Put the boots in a well-ventilated place where they can dry without being disturbed. Let them dry for at least 36 hours.

4. Apply a second and perhaps a third coat by repeating Steps 2 and 3. You should also reapply Scotchgard every season, and after your Ugg boots are exposed to water. This keeps them water repellent.

Tips & Warnings

• Scotchgard is not recommended for suede boots.
