I have a question/request. Living in Vegas had me spoiled; we have a guy there named Abe who could really make shoes shine. When I went home recently, all the fellas had their shoes on point and I was trailing behind. Can someone give detailed instructions on what they do to make their shoes shine? I don't want to use Leather Luster and I would prefer a process that involves dying the shoe black (this makes a difference). I have just been using several coats of Griffin and I want more now. I don't even know what kind or where to get spray dye. Like I said, I was spoiled with a good shoe man in Vegas.

Best thing I have found is called "Shape-Up"...only place I can find it is in military/law enforcement catalogs and websites. It a "paint-on" polish...here's what I do -1)After buying the shoes, strip them with rubbing alcohol and a rag to get the waxy stuff off of them...2)Apply a couple coats of Shape-Up and let each coat dry before putting on the next coat...3)rub them good with a buffing cloth (buy an actual buffing cloth, don't use an old towel)...
And those shoes you showed are "sick" - at least I think that's the word Manwr used...
