The 90-Minute Plan

Clean and Prep0–15 min

Remove dried mud and dirt with a brush or damp cloth. Let shoes dry completely. Protect surrounding area with newspaper

Apply Base Polish15–35 min

Use a small amount of Polish matching your shoe color. Apply in circular motions with a soft cloth, covering the entire surface

Build the Shine35–55 min

Apply a second coat of polish. Use a horsehair brush in circular motions. The more layers, the better the shine

Buff to Brilliance55–75 min

Use a clean, dry cloth and buff vigorously in circular motions. Work section by section until you see a mirror shine

Final Details and Maintenance75–90 min

Wipe the sole and heel. Apply silicone spray for water resistance. Store in a cool place. Polish monthly for best results
