    Shiny Boots

    Shiny boot questions are welcome as threads as long as the poster reads the Boot Bulling sticky thread first.

    When the thread dies down it will be archived in the above Boot Bulling Thread.

    have you got any experience using morello, i'm thinking of buying some.
    A man may fight for many things. His country, his friends, his principles, the glistening tear on the cheek of a golden child. But personally, I'd mud-wrestle my own mother for a ton of cash, an amusing clock and a sack full of French porn.

    If you know anyone in the RAF they use aoroplane nose cone paint. It has a brilliant deep shine, will never crack, is scuff resistent (within reason) and simply buffs up nicely. A few years ago I had my toecaps done for £40. There is one draw back, you need to associate with the RAF to get it done!

    a good shoe shining method is water, polish and cotton wool balls and its called the waterboy as you run ur toe cap under a runing tap, put a bit of polish on and shine the shoes with the cotton wool under the running water
    it will totally shine!
