aussiechick2006 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Hello everyone, Just wondering if Jeyes is actually ok on shoes? So far I've done a few of the kids pairs. But a little worried to start on mine, lol. My house officially STINKS of the stuff!!! Also, do I need to give them a proper scrub till they're spotless or is a bit of a scrub and wipe over with diluted Jeyes ok? There's a few marks and grass stains that no matter how hard I scrub just aren't coming off. Will that be ok? AC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munchkinella Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Didn't do any of ours. The removal guys told us, if they were every day shoes just to give them a wipe with a damp cloth to get any residual dirt off. They checked them over and we had no problems. Hope this helps.

aussiechick2006 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Thanks ever so much. Our removals are on Friday, nothing like leaving it till the last minute!!! I gave mine a very diluted wipe over. Not sure my husband is going to find cleaning his bike so easy tonight :-/ AC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munchkinella Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Your welcome. Who are you using and where are you heading? We are near Melbourne and loving it! :smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiechick2006 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 We're using Robinson's Relocation. We're heading back home (literally!) to stay with my mum in the house i grew up in, about 2hrs out of Melbourne. I've been in the UK about 10 and a half years now. Think I've done my stint, lol... So the girls (3 & 5) and I are going to stay with my mum until my husband comes out. He's off out the country with work before he finishes. I'm so excited and can't wait. Hopefully a few trips to Melbourne catching up with friends! Peso how long have you been over for? It's lovely to hear from people who are enjoying it. Even for me who's Australian it's still a big move. AC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munchkinella Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Been here since Dec 2010. Came out to be with our kids. DD is married and mother to our 2 beautiful granddaughters. Son came out on WH visa 3 yrs ago and is now at uni here. No contest really we all have to be together! Jxxxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiechick2006 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Aww bless.... My mum's only ever met our youngest twice and our eldest 4 times. She is over the moon that were moving back!!! Unfortunately she doesn't have the money to be able to visit. She's already been buying some of the girls favourite things in to stock up the cupboard. It's lovely seeing her so excited! We're not sure how long we'll be living with her. It will depend on when my husband can actually make it over and when he can find a job. But at least we can have a girlie time at my mums and she can get to know the girls. 2weeks on Sunday till the flight and I can't wait! AC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munchkinella Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 My baby girls are 3 & 16mths. We only met our eldest one twice before we came over but lots of Skype! It was wonderful, and very emotional, to be here for the birth of our youngest. We see them lots and lots now! :yes: Jxxxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rammygirl Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 WE just washed things with normal non smelly disifectant and hot water. I hate the smell of Jeyes and didn't want it to pervade the whole container. As long as there is no visible soil/organic matter you will be fine. We had lots of hiking gear and no problems.
