Gum Sole De-Yellowing
Revitalize Your Sneakers with Gum Sole De-yellowing!
Over time, gum soles can develop a yellowish tint due to exposure to dirt and environmental factors. Our de-yellowing service is designed to refresh the look of your sneakers by reducing discolouration and restoring a cleaner, more natural tone to the soles.
While results may vary depending on the level of wear, our process will noticeably enhance the overall appearance of your gum soles, giving your sneakers a refreshed, polished look.
Note: The pricing quoted is the minimum expected price, should an additional amount be required our team will notify you of this charge before work is completed.
