have just aquired a good pair black shoes, with odd polish on. have always been able to get a good shine on my shoes. am going to remove old polish with heatgun. two questions. do i ned to sand the leather? either if i do sand or not do i realy need to wax shoes before starting a fresh? thanks

I need this bull shine

What polishes do I need to do this properly, I currently only use saphir black with the beeswax added but can't get anywhere near this finish! Can you list what I need to get to achieve this?

How many of each for coats? Your polishing rag is wet / damp? Where does this beeswax come in? Before your layering?

Proper job that. Well done. I can’t get such a mirror finish to my boots but the leather doesn’t seem to be as smooth. Is there a remedy for this at all please?

Learned this as a 15 yr old boy soldier 69 now and just bulled my 7 yr old granddaughters Doc Martens boots . Same process as this video .

Hi there can I ask a couple of questions I used to be able to do this pretty well but it’s been a long time and I need to parade in November. Is that right? You’re using a black and a brown to get a deeper shine. Is it still black or is it actually black and tan? I’ve done this on a Sam Brown belt but not on shoes would it still be a black pair of shoes but with a deeper shine any help would help please and I’m gonna go onto your shopping and buy some bits as well at the end of the month. I’m just going to buy a new pair of black shoes, but I was a bit nervous because I saw you had brown polish out but it didn’t say in the caption have these shoes beeswax at all? Can I still get a good shine without beeswaxing? I’m a bit dubious about doing that thank you.

When you surface prep the shoes to allow better penetration of the beeswax, what are you using in terms of grit?

Do you do like a service were you do people's shoes?

This is something I wish I could’ve brought into the Army, at 18; but it’s soothing watching a Professional demonstrate how to shine shoes

Having watched this film; I am in awe. The finished product is ace! However, what happens when you put the shoes on and go walkabout? I think that the leather would crack the polish on the upper. All the hours of hard work will have been wasted! I welcome your thoughts/opinion?

Beautiful ❤️ I love this video excellent perfect shining process... every thing is so exciting.. thanks

My dad was on the navy and as a result i was brought up to cherish and value well polished shoes. This video is a genuine old skill that should be valued.

You should talk during the video

With the mirror gloss, are you able to use alternatives- for instance kiwi's parade gloss. Or does that not show as good result?

Brown polish on black shoes?

What are the products?

How long did it take you to polish that shoe?

For a black shoe what combination should I use for tbe bulling process a brown and black or black and dark blue or should I only use black?

Does it work if you have black kiwi shoe polish

Is this only done on the first time when you get the boots or is this done every time or periodically when polishing?

Will you do a guide on beeswaxing boots and/or shoes?

What’s the use of the tin lid?

Can you show us how you pack out the shoe

What type of cloth are you using?

So in my 38 years of service polishing my Brogues…I have only used Black polish…does mixing in light brown give it more depth?

Were these treated with beeswax first?

I am still unsure when trying it, how thin a thin layer is, because it looks like you are using more than I do. I still experiment with pressure and how damp the cloth should be. My red Dr Martens don't achieve such a shine. The black won't either, but better than the red ones. :/

Yea how do you stop the cracking?

No water????

Bit of a bone question, but are these shoes black or brown? It’s quite hard to tel with the light and shine? If they are brown, what mix of polishes would you recommend for a black shoe or boot? Thanks in advance.

Would love to see you doing a time lapse of waxing and bulling a Sam Browne.

Would you post a video/short on how to burn down shoes - pretty much how to to start again with an older pair of parade shoes?

Wouldnt they just crack?

Where do you recommend we get the saphir mirror gloss from? Everywhere i look is financially crippling 😂

How 😂 messed my ammo boots twice now trying to do them just can't seem to get the trick, if only I could beeswax properly 😅

Do you beeswax shoes and if so how many layers should be applied.

Can you do an entire shoe with just saphir paté deluxe?

What kind of shoes are they? And what kind of shoes do you recommend?

Is the brown cream also pate de luxe?

Have the shoes been beeswaxed?

how much pressure are you applying?

thanks

Im so glad an actual channel for this sort if stuff is here!

How do you mix your polish?

Do you remove the shiny layer of leather before beeswaxing? Or do you go straight in from out the box?

Will be sharing around with some cadet mates. Nice stuff!

Finally a proper channel!

Awesome, can’t wait for some great polishing content on TH-cam now, hopefully some long in-depth tutorials on their way. Keep up the great work and exited to see what you post on this platform now
