Best shoe shine product

I was also trying to find out about the Amway shoe shine but since it is not made anymore I tried Leather Luster as suggested by some people. I found it to be very difficult to use with "toxic" multi-step applications involved and long drying periods between those applications. Although the eventual shine is OK, it tends to be blotchy and not very even. However, the worse part was that after letting the last application dry overnight (12+ hours), I put the shoes on in the morning since they felt dry but the stain from the sides of the soles got all over the carpet. What a mess!! I had to use the rest of the pre-cleaner to get the stains out of the carpet. My suggestion is to avoid this product at all cost, unless you live in a barn.

I use the Kiwi liquid Premiere Shine. Works great for me.

I feel so old beyond my years when it comes to shining my shoes. I use good ol' fashioned Kiwi Parade Gloss. Apply a coat, let dry for 1 or 2 minutes, brush, buff and then repeat until you get the desired sheen. Nothing beats the tried and true method.
