After you've checked that the surface of the boots is dry, use a new dry cloth to buff off the dubbin to bring out the shine. Polish (optional). If you'd like to go a step further in the maintenance and boost the shiny new look of your boots, why not opt for a coating of leather-friendly shoe polish. Head outdoors!
Does dubbin shine leather?
Dubbin is a wax product used to soften, condition and waterproof leather and other materials. It consists of natural wax, oil and tallow. Dubbin has been used since medieval times to waterproof and soften leather boots. It is different from shoe polish, which is used to impart shine and colour to leather.
Should you polish leather boots?
A regular buff, shine, and polish is important not only for the look, but also the longevity of your boots. While some prefer their boots have a worn and weathered look, here at StinkBOSS we like to keep ours looking shiny and clean. The steps are easy and results will last all season.
