Pressure you mean press hard while I wax, because I don't? I don't know what I am doing wrong. Followed every step here, little wax, little water. And the result is that.Not to be rude but i don´t understand how you can avoid a shine with the amount of work you put in. Like others said, less is more. Don´t apply to much pressure... try on some other shoes as well.
Thanks for the info. I had a black shine on these before that my friend did for me without any problem. Now i'm trying the darkbrown for myself. But will let them rest today and try out tomorrow with the tip you gave me and see how it will beEasy does it, alright. Also be careful...don't use a lot of polish. You can nearly just touch the surface of the polish in the can. Each application should be so thin that it just barely clouds the surface. Small..tiny, really...circular motions are also a key element.
If you have ever used or are using an oil based conditioner or cream, you may...depending on the leather...have so saturated the leather that it will never shine. I am not saying this is the case, but it is possible and you should be aware of it.
