Instruction manual
1
Before going out, prepare new leather shoes. Treat the surface with a special water-repellent spray. This must be done in advance and at least 2-3 times. Keep in mind that shine sponges are express care. They do not replace the full processing of shoes, but give only a cosmetic effect. Moreover, the composition of the sponges includes silicone, which with frequent use can provoke cracks.

Returning home from the street, be sure to wash your shoes under running water. To clean the dirt, it is better to use a soap solution. But ordinary cosmetic soap is not suitable for this procedure. Well washed leather shoes soap based on horse fat or, in extreme cases, household. Be sure to wipe the shoes dry with a paper towel and rub the surface with a protective cream with wax. Leave the cream overnight and polish the surface of the shoe with a suede cloth in the morning.

If the backdrop is deformed from the reagents, place a cotton swab soaked in acetone inside and insert the forming pad. It is better to dry wet shoes not with a battery, but with a special drying device, or by placing crumpled paper inside. The unpleasant odor that remains inside from wet shoes can be removed with a tampon and vinegar, placed inside and left overnight.
