Famaco Fa Det Dry Clean – clean your shoes properly, without a drop of water.
Some shoes really don’t like water. Suede, nubuck and delicate leathers can stain and stiffen if you clean them with a wet, water-based product. Famaco Fa Det is the clever answer: a dry-clean spray that works rather like a steam cleaner in a can, lifting dirt without leaving a wet layer of water or cleaner behind. That means a thorough clean with far less risk to the material.
It is a genuinely useful thing to have in the cupboard for any shoes you’d normally be nervous about cleaning. Famaco is a respected French shoe-care house, and this is one of those quietly brilliant products that does exactly what it promises. A few passes and your shoes look refreshed, without the drying time or water marks.
Why choose Famaco Fa Det Dry Clean?
- No water needed: cleans without soaking, so there’s no risk of water stains or stiffening.
- Kind to delicate materials: ideal for suede, nubuck and leathers that don’t take kindly to wet cleaning.
- Fast and fuss-free: spray, wipe and go — no long drying time to wait through.
- Lifts everyday grime: tackles dust, marks and general dirt to freshen shoes up.
- Handy spray can: quick to use for a regular refresh between deeper cleans.
How to use Famaco Fa Det Dry Clean
- Brush off any loose, coarse dirt first — mud, sand and dried-on residue.
- Hold the can around 20–25cm from the shoe and spray evenly.
- Work the cleaner in with a polishing cloth or brush for a better result.
- Let the shoes rest so the last of the cleaner can lift away.
- Once refreshed, finish suede with a brush, or add an impregnating spray for extra protection against dirt and moisture.
Because it skips the water entirely, Fa Det is perfect for a mid-week freshen-up when you haven’t the time (or the weather) for a full clean and dry. Keep it handy and your suede trainers and boots will thank you.
Haico’s tip
Give suede and nubuck a good brush both before and after using Fa Det. Brushing first loosens the dirt so the spray can lift it, and brushing afterwards lifts the nap back up for that lovely, even velvety finish.

Frequently asked questions
Can I really use it on suede and nubuck?
Yes — that’s exactly where it shines. Because there’s no water involved, it cleans suede and nubuck without the staining and stiffening that wet cleaning can cause.
Do I need to rinse afterwards?
No rinsing needed. Simply let the shoes rest so any residue lifts away, then brush suede back up or buff smooth leather.
Is it a substitute for a full clean?
It is brilliant for regular freshening and for delicate materials. For heavily soiled smooth leather, a deeper clean may still be worthwhile.
How far should I hold the can when spraying?
Around 20–25cm from the shoe. That distance gives an even, misted coverage rather than a concentrated wet patch, which is the whole point of a dry clean. Move steadily across the shoe as you spray.
Can I use it on trainers and canvas shoes?
Yes. As well as suede, nubuck and smooth leather, it’s handy for freshening up fabric and canvas footwear where you’d rather not soak the material. Brush off loose dirt first for the best result.
