Has anyone tried this spray on patient leather dress shoes? I have a pair of pointed toe flats AND heels- both are leather inside, but shiny ourside

Never tried it on patent leather, but I use the spray on the inside of some of my shoes anyway. You can spray it on the inside leather. This is a good spray.

If you worried about dulling, I would suggest a traditional shoe shine. This offers great protection for shoes that are worn very often. I work in hospitality and am constant using this to get buts of food and who knows what else off. I wouldn't say it dulls very muc overall and it certainly is safe on light colored leather.

Never tried it on leather. It can make surfaces sticky when sprayed though.

Advised by my Podiatrist to stop using nail color/lacquer due to nail problems. Cannot imagine daily soak would take polish off (especially the newer formulations designed to last a long time), but it might cause it to chip sooner.

I did have the problem of Leather Dye wiping off and rubbing off onto my clothes from a handbag I dyed. I used Resolene as a top coat and it seems to have fixed the problem. Now I only use acrylic dyes for shoes and handbags.

When I used it, I just applied a layer over the toenails of a cleaned foot. Give it a few minutes to dry, then you can put your socks on.I do not use it anymore and changed to plain vinegar per my podiatrist recommendation. It is a year long process, and you need to hang in there. Quick fixes if advertised are clearly bogus...would not happen.

Applying it to the inside is in my opinion not a good idea. The leather that lines the inside of a boot is quite different than the outside leather. A good thing to remember about the inside of the boot is that it normally absorbs the sweat from your foot. The sweat contains nothing but a salt solution. Salt is a major enemy of leather! It dries the leather out. When the leather dries it cracks. I would suggest you treat the inside with a solution of water and vinegar. This solution will draw any salt that is in the leather out. I would lightly rub into the leather the leather honey. Always keep some vinegar around when you are taking care of your leather footwear. It will definitely give longer life to your leather products. How much cheaper can you go than vinegar! I restored a 100 year old saddle that was so stiff and brittle I thought it would break! The stiffness was caused by many many years of salt from the horse and the rider. It took a bunch of treatments to bring the leather into a pliable state.. I used Leather Honey in the final stages and the leather was soft and totally restored! I hope this helps with your questions. My answer is based on my experience of over 40 years in the leather industry!

Possibly. I bought it to remove a stain caused by my blue jeans rubbing on my tan leather cross body bag and it didn't really remove it. Blue jean dye is synthetic indigo whereas shoe polish is a mix of natural and synthetic materials, including naphtha, turpentine, dyes, and gum arabic. Both substances have been rubbed into the grain of the leather over time, repeatedly, and from my experience, the leather milk only took off surface staining and didn't go deep into the grain. I would give it a 50% chance of success. Hope that helps.

I would say yes if they are not suede, apparently suede and nubuck are very sensitive. I have used it on penny loafers and 3 other pairs of men's shoes without issue. I love the shine!

I've never tried it on shoes. I use it for my art and mixed media projects and I like it. Goes on easily and dries well. I also use the glossy finish for projects I want to be shiny. It is a high quality product and I love it, but I just read the label and it says nothing about canvas material. However, it does say "for displays, crafts, decorative painting...." I have used it on art canvas with good results. If I had canvas shoes, I probably would use it on them. It protects my mixed media (which contains materials sometimes) very well. Hope that was helpful....

I sprayed it on my leather boots and it didn't hurt them...it did however turn my brown camo boots white! But the white faded and are back to normal.

I use it on my leather including shoes and handbags. This is a really great product and I have been happily using it for years.

I would not worry about it, the polish will work itself out and you will not notice a difference. I two machines, one for black polish and one for brown and I do not worry about buffing shoes on either one

I used it on my wives boots and it worked fine. I also used it on my work boots and it did not work well. I would stick to using this on tennis shoes or boots like you mentioned.

I spray it directly into my shoes and on my orthodic inserts. It works great! You can also spray it on your feet if you want.

With one can, I've sprayed about 12 pair of boots in preparation for winter. Just keep in mind, light color fabric or material will either darken or turn a yellowish color. I learned the hard way. I will only use this spray for dark shoes and boots. its definitely not for cream, taupe or white sneakers, boots, shoes, etc.

Yes, I am sure that would work, Just let it dry completely. I sometimes just spray on the outside of the shoe, too.
