Step 1: Begin by preparing your FuelCells for cleaning. Unlace your shoes and set the laces aside for later. Use our Premium Brush to gently remove any loose dirt, focusing on heavily soiled areas.

Step 2: Evenly apply Sneaker Cleaner across the shoe’s surface. Dip the Premium Brush into water and scrub the mesh upper in circular motions until a foamy lather forms. Continue onto the outsole, ensuring all dirt is lifted from the surface.

Step 3: Use a Microfiber Towel to blot away excess moisture and residue. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

Step 4: Clean the laces by spraying Sneaker Cleaner directly onto them. Rub together between your palms, then rinse in clean water to create foam. Repeat until clean, towel-dry, and air dry fully.

Step 5: Once both your shoes and laces are completely dry, relace your FuelCells and get ready for protection.

Clean, Care, Protect

Step 6: Apply Odor Protector inside your FuelCells to eliminate odours and prevent bacterial growth. Remove the insoles and spray both the interior and insoles generously.

Step 7: Finally, mist Sneaker Protector evenly across the exterior to create a barrier against dirt and build-up. This makes future cleans quicker and keeps your FuelCells looking fresh for longer. Once dry, you’re ready to hit the road with confidence.

Tip: Allow all products to dry fully between steps for best results and long-lasting freshness.
