post how you shine em

I did polished them with Alcoholic and Kiwi "Parade"

I found lighter fluid mixed into shoe paste wax does a wondrous job with application of very cold water and soft cotton cloth. You can get a shine that is as shiny as a mirror.

(or)

You can buy a set of patent leather shoes/boots for inspection purposes and guard mounts.

you mean let lighter fluid soak into the polish?

I bull mine with good ole kiwi black.

Kiwi cloth, Kiwi polish and anywhere between 10 to 45 mins of work (depends on how badly scuffed the boots became during the day/week)

You light the polish ... let it melt ... put out the flame and add lighter fluid ... stir before polish sets ... this will keep the polish very very soft so that it fills every little imperfection in the leather. By using cold water and a cotton cloth, you can get a 'mirror' finish to your boots with the application of a little elbow grease.

mkay, will have to try tht. when you say boots, does that mean yall shine the whole boot? cos with my parade shoes we bull them (tiny circles) and christ on a pair of boots.... take all day!

when i shine my boots i do the whole toe area and the heel. i dont shine the side. what i do wiht hat is i sue the brush to get it to look ok. but i do bull them on the toe section and heel.

gotcha, i was gonna say, bulling the whole boot has gotta be a task and a half!

yeah, it would take forever to bull the whole thing.
