FAQ

1. How do I quickly achieve a mirror / spit shine?
   Clean and dry the uppers → apply a thin layer → let dry → buff with a soft cloth or horsehair brush. For a true mirror shine, add ultra-thin additional layers and use a lightly water-damped cloth in small circles (classic spit shine).
   
   
2. What imperfections can it disguise?
   Effective on light scuffs and mild fading. For deeper cuts, first treat with leather repair/conditioning cream, then finish with Stain Wax for gloss and protection.
   
   
3. How water- and dirt-resistant is the finish?
   The protective wax layer enhances water resistance and helps shed everyday grime. Reapply thin coats periodically to maintain the barrier.
   
   
4. Which materials are suitable? Any exclusions?
   For smooth/fnished leather and coated leather only. Not for suede, nubuck, patent leather, or fabric.
   
   
5. Do I need leather cream first?
   If the leather is dry, apply a light leather cleaner/conditioner, allow full absorption and drying, then use Lincoln Stain Wax to build the high-gloss finish.

How to Use & Notes

• Steps: 1) With a clean cloth/dauber, apply a thin, even coat. 2) Allow to dry. 3) Buff to shine with a polishing cloth or horsehair brush. 4) For even higher gloss, repeat with ultra-thin coats and a lightly water-damped cloth in tight circles.
• Tips: Several thin layers beat one thick layer. Clean, dry leather improves bonding and clarity.
• Safety: Keep away from heat/flames. Do not ingest. Patch-test on an inconspicuous area before first use.
• Storage: Close the shoe polish tin firmly after use and store in a cool, dry place to preserve freshness.
