    • @Create-n-fix-with-Nick
      @Create-n-fix-with-Nick 4 місяці тому

      Heh. I think it took me about three sessions of about ten minutes each. The trick for me is to do it by feel. I put the hand on some rodico and eyeball it centered, then move it back and forth and side to side. You get a bit of a feel for the sides of the tube bumping over the seconds hand pinion😃. Honestly I watch some of the really skilled UA-cam watch guys and am in awe of how fast they seem to do this! Main thing is to relax, have fun, and avoid forcing anything. If you feel you are getting frustrated just put it all aside and try again later 😜👍🏽

    • @Create-n-fix-with-Nick
      @Create-n-fix-with-Nick 4 місяці тому

      Uncrease how? The leather will get creases from wear, thats normal. If you store a boot and the flap gets creased over (for example above the ankle) then softening with dubbin or DM Wonder Balm will help to soften the leather and make the crease less noticeable as you wear it. Shoe trees to stretch once you have softened and moisturised the leather will also help.

    • @Create-n-fix-with-Nick
      @Create-n-fix-with-Nick 4 місяці тому

      Well. The short answer is yes, but you want to avoid getting too much soap on the leather. If you use the masking tape trick that will help. Regular soap is not great for leather, it tends to dry it out and make it crack. Saddle soap is made with natural ingredients like beeswax, neatsfoot oil, or lanolin, which gives it moisturizing properties that are beneficial for leather. Regular soap, on the other hand, is often made with synthetic ingredients that can be harsh on leather. Make sense?

      Shoes and boots are designed to be used in wet weather. These were originally designed in the UK where it is not uncommon for precipitation to fall from the skies! 😀 You do want to dry the boots before polishing for best results though. If you ever do really soak them (for example a really wet day on a building site) you can air dry them and use the method in my other video to polish them up.

      @Create-n-fix-with-Nick 4 місяці тому

      @@Vinay99266You can, but I’m less keen on the idea if you are talking about kleer. Ultimately polish is, what it is. The french Sapir stuff is probably the best. Trickers in the UK rebrand it. But it’s spendy. KIWI is cheap but has silicone in it so as you build it up it will crack, and need to be stripped back every few weeks or so. You can hit it with a hot teaspoon (use a candle to heat it) but don’t burn it off. Thats how I used to do Army boots years ago. The liquid floor polish like Kleer can be used but it’s harsh on leather, and you have to strip it from time to time. Personally I use the Trickers/saphir black shoe cream to moisturise the leather and then build up coat after coat of clear polish, doing little circles with a cotton “chamios” cloth. Small amount of polish, small amount of water, repeat, repeat. Wait a couple days for it to harden, repeat again. Over a week or so you get a mirror shine that really lasts. Lots of Mirror shine videos on yt. Maybe I’ll do one too 🤪
