What is shoe paint?

Polish Bot is a product used for glow, polishing and protection of leather shoes. The polishing shoes increase their life and leads to a more attractive look. It comes in various forms, including wax, paste, cream and liquid, and can be applied in many different ways. Polish shoes have been used for centuries, but the modern version has been available from the beginning of the 20th century.

before the 20th century Polish lacquer was made only from natural ingredients, including tallow and wax, but this formula has changed in recent history. Most shoe paints today still contain wax, but also include various chemicals, including Terpentin, dota and dyes and natural substances such as Lanolin and Arabic rubber. Lanolin is a by -product of the wave obtained during the cut process and is added to the boot waterproof and combines further ingredients together. Arabic rubber, obtained from a acacia tree, is used to increase the thickness of the shoe. IsAlso necessary pounding and sometimes it will be needed several coats to achieve the desired gloss. A common method of polishing shoes is called "spitting gloss" and includes friction of the polish into the shoe with a drop of water or in some cases real saliva. This technique is usually associated with military organizations and creates a very high glossy surface.

Some manufacturers create a form of shoes on the applicator, similar to wet mushrooms. Some of these varnishes come in compressing bottles with applicator connected to the end. These types are usually liquid and much thinner than traditional wax -based shine. Their main advantage is comfort, although many would claim that they cannot deliver the same level of gloss for which the wax lacquer is known.

Polish black boots can be the most popular color, but can also be found in many different shades. There is brown, white, burnt and even clear shoe lacquer and recommendedIt is that the color of the shine corresponds to the color of the skin for the best end result. Although it is usually designed for skin use, some manufacturers have created a varnish that is safe for use on vinyl.
