You are an absolute artist!!! I simply enjoy watching you work. I look forward to getting my own pair and working on them.

The brown is cool

Im a maintenance tech at a court house and i put a nice shine on my boots and i have had lawyers sheriffs deputies and even a judge ask me about my boots

How fast they lose the shine though? Is the main question.

They should ban all the veterans talking about how all the recruits should watch this video

Great video! Could I use methylated spirits in replace of acetone?

can you shine old shoes using kiwi?

The aerosol should be kept vertical in use and the shoe rotated otherwise the spray will not work efficiently.

Amazing job

can this be applied to cadet boots?

Man the knowledge you have. The second pair mind blowing crocodile whole cut…send it to me a 13d.

I would confuse that grain with rhino. “Tyrone” ?

As usual you do great job. I’m an old military guy. I thought I wouldn’t learn anything from you …but you my friend thought an old dog new tricks. Thank you so much. Tyrone🎉

If the previous owner had sent them back to Allen Edmonds for "recrafting" they would have told him they couldn't do it! You've outdone the original manufacturer and given those shoes a new lease on life looking better, frankly, than they probably did when they were brand new.

I have always wondered how a pair of shoes end up in this condition. Was this negligence ? or was this a period of hard times where the monies were need for something much more critical. I hope the never end up on the latter. You did a great job

Now them shoes ain't fashion ?? That's pure style 👌

What exactly did you use for the toe burnish? Is it a dye or polish?

That came out beautifully

Wow can you do the rest of the shoe to

What an absolute waste of precious life. Nobody is going to lie on their deathbed relishing in memories of mirror shining some shoes.

Hoe does a nice pair of shoes get so wrecked? Do you know how much walking it takes to wear a hole into a shoe?

They took 6 months to deliver and only after I complained, one week later they send me shoes that were too tight and painful to wear, no accountability at all.

I don’t own shoes like these but this transformation was amazing, very inspiring and great to watch even though I’m female and non-military! Almost thinking of buying an old pair!

Got up early on a Saturday to watch this video , as ALWAYS a great great presentation . I am still learning and get great pleasure from keeping my shoes and boots in the condition that I want them . I appreciate your participation in the PATP and look forward to chatting with you again .

I swear I've tried "Mirror Shine" Countless Times, However, Without the Success Shown in this Restoration, As Well As in So Many Others. Congratulations on Your Dedication ! Many Thanks For Sharing !

Maravilloso ❤❤❤❤

YOU SUCK LATIN BALD

Thanks! This worked out pretty well, I had one small issue one of my shoes won’t get as shiny as the other

Great video as always.

I just got some Solovairs, so I'm gonna save this video for when I need to give them a shine!

what if your shoes have an uneven number of eyelets each side????????????

These are stunning

Anybody has tips on how to do this in an apartment without getting black stuff all over ? Please!

Preston! Love your channel. I am working on a pair of Ecco Wingtips. After acetone on cotton pads until clean, the brogueing and toe holes are still dark with radiating staining. Should I get in to the nooks and crannies with acetone on a toothbrush?

Please post the steps you took and your ingredients that you used to strip black dye from shoes. I have a pair of Corcoran black jump boots that I want to change to patina WW2 jump boots.

와우. 얼음을 사용하는지는 몰랐네요. Wow, I didn't know that the ice cube is necessary. I am gonna use ice cube from now on.....

would this be good for boots? And would the beeswax be able to fill in slightly creased toe since they had a crease when they got issued.

Due to lifelong Orthopedic problems and the need to put orthotics in my shoes, I went to Carmina's store locally at 45th St. in New York, hoping I could get fit with a quality pair of dress shoes that I could fit my orthotics into and wear comfortably. Instead, I was met by a pushy salesman who was just hellbent on selling whatever they had in stock. When I got home and double checked the Detroits he had sold me, I saw that my orthotics were in fact cutting into the sides of the shoes, and would in no time be damaging the linings. Although I could probably order a perfect pair of custom Carminas for myself, I can't trust this company anymore. I'm just taking these shoes back.

This one was superb...less is better.

Damn shame you ruined that bag, sometimes less is more. A little lanolin and that would have been a keeper, now you should mercifully trash it.

Superb job.

So I assume this applies to boots as well

So you didn’t sand the toe area for the wax to absorb into leather better ??

Use olive oil just put very little on a rag and it’ll shine your shoes gos for anything leather or shoes olive oil good If you want to waterproof your shoes use meguiars car wax

Way too narrow even in eee 😂

Try again with the Dremel using the more solid lint attachment. From the video it looked like you used some sort of rotary brush (can't be sure). The lint attachment could work. Probably you need to dip it into the water though. The spinning motion would push out most of the water almost instantly, hopefully leaving enough humidity in the lint. BTW, I'm not an expert of shoe shining, just someone with decent DIY experience to get a sense of how to replicate the basics of one process using some other tools. I'll try it myself. If I manage to get a decent shine, I'll let you know.

Man these are beautiful
