Where to get DIY shoe stretcher liquid?
![Shari Fryrear](https://cdn-fastly.hometalk.com/resources/imgs-responsive/avatar-letters/avatar-S-69E0FF.png?size=91x91)
I used to have the formula for stretching shoes and lost it. I know I can buy it at $11.00 a bottle but prefer to save my money and do it myself. Does any one know how the solution is made?

Half the mustache fell off my 3’ nutcracker. How can I repair it? Nutcracker is made of some type of fibrous material, not plastic, not wood.

It suggests half water and half rubbing alcohol. Good luck.
That's exactly what I was going to say half water and half rubbing alcohol. mix it in a spray bottle . If it's possible when you put them on soak them with the water and alcohol and wear them and they will fit to your feet I do it with my boots all the time.
Hi Shari,
I have never used a liquid formula to stretch shoes. I have used this freezing method several times in the past and it works like a charm.
