KIWI Parade Gloss Prestige Shoe Shine Polish for Black Leather, Metal Tin, 50ml

Product Information

Protective shoe sprays can help safeguard your shoes against water, stains, and other forms of damage. Look for sprays that are specifically designed for leather shoes and follow the instructions carefully. Be sure to test the spray on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure that it doesn’t discolor or damage the leather.

OK, when you are applying the polish (in a circular motion), you will see polish "swirls". Do not be afraid, this is quite normal and healthy. Phew" I hear you say! Swirls are good, they show that you are doing it right. As you keep polishing, the swirls will start to go away. This too, is very normal, it indicates that it is time for the next layer. Top Tip: The circular motion is vital. Aim for a motion of about an inch in diameter. Too small, and you will be there all day, too big and you won't really achieve anything. Please mark "Returned Goods/Merchandise" option with no (zero) value when filling the Customs Declaration Form.Additionally, maintaining shoe shine is not a one-time effort. Regular cleaning and polishing, proper storage and handling, and using protective shoe sprays can go a long way in keeping your shoes looking their best. Whether you're brush polishing or bulling this has to be one of the longest running debates within the cadet forces. We thought it was about time someone finally lay the issue to rest by putting 5 of the most popular polishes to a proper test. What we did... Take your duster with the polish on it and apply it to the toe cap of your boot in a circular motion. Do not press hard, you only need to have a slight pressure on the pad of your finger. Remember, the application process is crucial to achieving the desired results. Make sure to prepare your shoes adequately before applying the polish. Use the right amount of polish, and don’t forget to let it dry before buffing. A duster or soft rag (you can get them from your local supermarket) (Marines will tell you to use a white cloth diaper that's been washed a few times.)

Spit and Polishing (aka. "Bulling","Polishing" etc.) has been around for many a moon, and there are about fifty different methods handed down from airman to airman over the years. The ones you are most likely to hear about are: Many people ask me how long it takes to get it to this stage. My standard answer is that it depends on the state of the boot, how long you have been "bulling" for overall and how much time and effort you have put into the process. I said it takes hours and I wasn't kidding.
