Works good, and give a new like again

Overall I’ve found this product amazing. Arrived today and already revived a pair of very old suede DMs and some black New Balance.Firstly, it is much easier to use on a wholly black shoe like the DMs, my New Balance have a white rubber midsole and white N on the side and I inevitably got some product on those areas as I wasn’t cautious enough. HOWEVER, the coverage is amazing and the colour is spectacular.Tip #1 - have a suede & nubuck kit to one side (one of those that has the eraser and spongey brush). I managed to completely remove all the black I got on the white midsole using the eraser.Tip #2 - the instructions say to brush the suede - this is a VERY important step but the product doesn’t come with a brush so make sure you either have on to hand (you can use the brush mentioned in tip 1).Tip #3 - wear gloves and be aware of WHERE you do this. I didn’t wear gloves so going over the lace holes I inevitably got a lot on my hands. It does wash off skin easy enough but was a bit more tough to get out from under the nails etc. I also got a tiny drip on my carpet before I’d moved to the bathroom so consider that too.Tip #4 - it dries very quickly and once does it doesn’t transfer at all, so once it’s dry definitely get going quite quickly with the brush or a second coat to get the best effect.Tip #5 - get yourself a waterproofing spray for after it dries to product your new finish !!Tip #7 - some reviews say the “sponge breaks easily”. There are very easy fixes to this, the sponge screws off like any other bottle. This means it’s very easy to replace the sponge with that from another bottle if you’ve bought multiple. However, ive had no issues with my sponge.Tip #7 pt 2 - when you take off the sponge it’s very easy to access the dye. For those tight spaces and harder to reach areas (due to multiple colours next to each other or a coloured midsole) you could dip a brush in and apply it like paint. This occurred to me AFTER I got the dye in my midsole

Ha ridato vita a delle scarpe ormai troppo schiarite

I used 'Sneaky Suede Revive - Premium Suede and Nubuck Revival Stick' on an old pair of Adidas Gazelles that were looking very grey and worn. One coat of this stuff brought them back to life and looking really good again. I removed the lid and used a small paintbrush for the edges and in between the stripes.

Proof is in the pudding.The applicator is handy but the shape makes it hard to avoid areas you don't want to applicate to.You have to press down to release the dye so you're Limited to circular coverage.A removable lid and a small brush would be handy for corner areas the circle sponge can't reach.
