I think that spray you are talking about is just to protect before it gets dirty so it won't stain - best bet is to use a bleach/water solution - what type of material is the shoe you are trying to clean.

suede is a bitch to clean - esp white - its prob a lost cause once its faded another color - heavy diluted bleach (90/10 or 80/20 water to bleach) is the best thing for the shoe to try and get it back to the true white color...good luck - there maybe suede cleaners on the market but usually their are crap....

I have used "goop" before the stuff mechanics use to clean the grease off their hands...the white goop may work for you the best since the shoes are white.

Paint them white. That should work.
