To clean shoes, gently rub the brush down the surface to remove dirt, dust, and other debris. This can be done routinely to remove dirt from outdoor use or before polishing to ensure an even coat of color and shine. Before polishing shoes, make sure that all dirt and debris has been removed. While shoe polish comes in cream, wax, paste, and liquid varieties, this brush is best suited for cream and paste formulas. Dip the brush into the tin of polish and, using a circular motion, sweep the polish onto the surface of the shoe. Horsehair bristles are able to hold large amounts of polish at a time, so you do not need to re-dip too frequently. The toe and heel, however, may need an extra layer of polish, as they tend to wear the most. Allow shoes to dry for 15 minutes, after which you will remove excess polish. Using short, even strokes, quickly brush the entire surface of the shoe. Buff with a soft cloth if desired. Enjoy your good-as-new shoes!
