do you need a separate deer bone for every color or can you use the same deer bone far all the colors? Same question for the designated dirt horse hair brush?

Good luck!.

I have a small tear near the little toe on my Park Avenues. Now I am afraid to use them, because I think it will just get worse.
What on earth should I do?
I just received my first pair of black cordovan shoes from Vass. I was expecting shiny new pair of black shoes but instead received some nice but very dull black shoes. Perhaps my expectations were out of line but any suggestions on how to get a glossy shine on these new shoes? I have already brushed and used a buffing cloth and had some improvement but nothing drastic. I was thinking of using some renovator but this thread seems to discourage doing anything but brush/buffing new shell. thanks for the help.
blasphemy!! all of that product is going to make shell super tackyOne thing to consider before trying to make them shinier yourself: shell tends to get shinier as the natural oils seep out of the shell through creases, so wearing the shoes will slowly but surely build up a shine.
That said, if you're looking to get them shinier sooner, you can try the Mac Method (google it). I do a slightly modified version of the Mac Method when I'm trying to build up a better shine. It cleans the shoes, conditions them, and gives them a nice shine (and a delicious smell - VSC is intoxicating...)
(1) Get the shoes very damp with a damp buffing cloth.
(2) Brush the shoes vigorously until the shoes are no longer damp or wet.
(3) Apply Bick 4 to the shoes liberally using a buffing cloth, and buff the Bick 4 into the shoes.
(4) Brush the shoes vigorously until the Bick 4 is nicely absorbed.
(5) Apply a very light coat of Venetian Shoe Cream to the shoes using a buffing cloth.
(6) Buff the shoes and enjoy the lovely shine.
