  1. My method is a little dangerous but here goes, cover all of them in petrol.
  2. You have not got petrol on there the petrol has evaporated what you have is some dirt that was being carried by the petrol. I don't know what the material actually is but it may have been carried deep into the material by the petrol. You could try lighter fuel which is a refined petrol and use cotton wool or very clean cotton rag that will soak the fuel and hopefully bring the staining material with it.
  3. thats life....get over it....
  4. I had some tar on my suede shoes and the hotel where I stayed got the stains out with eucalyptus oil. There was not a mark on them. I would think it would work for your boots too.
  5. Baking soda can be used to help clean up grease spills.
  6. Get some more petrol, and paste it all over the imitation suede boots, and then, they will look like they never had a petrol mark on them. won''t they....think about it.l
  7. The stain is probably the additives in the petrol or oil as the petrol will evaporate. The usual method of removing oily stains is strong hot detergent. and thorough rinsing.
