The sneakers were covered in brown dirt, particularly at the front of the shoes, but the product made it easy to remove.
‘I’ve added a paper towel underneath the shoe so any dirty residue can fall onto that. It is super easy to do,’ Sam said in the clip.
She first dampened the sponge before cleaning the sneakers and within seconds the dirt was lifted.
The Eraser Daddy features a dual-sided design of ‘tri-composite material’ and ‘backing of FlexTexture’ to remove tough stains easily.
Sam said: ‘It can also be used on household floors and walls, outdoor furniture and in your bathroom sink or shower.’
In the comments many seemed amazed by the swift transformation and how easy the shoes were to clean using the product.
‘Worked a treat!’ one person wrote, another added: ‘My white shoes need this!’
A third added: ‘Wow works like magic.’

Carolina used a tiny dollop of toothpaste on an old toothbrush then gently scrubbed the surface.
She wiped the toothbrush in one motion starting at the front then worked her way to the back.
After a few minutes the toothpaste was wiped off using a clean damp cloth.
It’s essential to only use non-gel white toothpaste on white-soled sneakers and test a small area of the shoe beforehand.
As toothpaste can help whiten and brighten teeth, the bathroom staple also worked wonders at cleaning Carolina’s sneakers.
The simple trick would be ideal for those who take care of their sneakers but may still have a few dirt marks.
In the comments other Instagram users tagged their friends to share the hack further across the internet.
‘Lots of good ideas here,’ one person wrote.
‘Awesome. Another cool trick is to use the ‘Pink Stuff’ paste and the Magic Eraser sponge,’ another suggested.
Carolina has a gained a social media following of more than 4.8million people by sharing ‘genius’ cleaning videos.
