What if your boots already have salt stains? Will this cover them up?

I don't know because I used Sno-Seal to protect the saddlebags on my motorcycle. I can attest to the fact that this is an excellent water sealant.

If you scrub the boots the best you can and apply as directed it should cover them up. It also covers most scuffs as well. I do a lot of plowing and salting in the winter and have the same problem and it works on my wolverines. Also is amazing at keeping your feet dry. Hope this helps

*probably* not but this product will darken your boots so maybe they will not be as noticeable. I use this on a pair of sheepskin Mocs which stain easily and am happy with the result.

If your boots currently have salt stains embedded in leather. First you must thoroughly clean your boots with Saddle Soap boot cleaner. Make sure to also remove laces on boots to clean every area. Let them dry overnight. Brush or wipe off all the Saddle Soap cleaner from boots. Then apply a thorough coating of Sno-Seal on boots. Use a hair dryer on warm setting to melt the Sno-Seal appl. on boots. Let boots sit overnight and brush or wipe off Sno-Seal next day. You may need to apply to applications of Sno-Seal on your boots to fully remove salt stains in leather. Good Luck.

It should help not sure if it will cover them up totally but it should help.

Don't know about UGG boots. I used it on a set of Skechers Men's Diameter Vassell in brown leather and it did darken the leather a shade. Other than that it seems to be working as far as water proofing the shoes

I don't own Red Wing boots...but in my experience with just about every leather I've treated..it lightens up a little, but whatever you treat remains a bit darker after treatment. I've also used leather honey and the same thing happens. I think it's just part of leather treatment that is unavoidable.

No I don't think so. Damp Rid absorbs water from the air not from objects and it is a slow process. They last about three months where I am (Florida) before the bottom of them is completely filled with water. I would suggest turning your boots on their side near a portable electric heater.

For boots I am not sure. But it certainly fixed my clarks(not desert boots just standard clarks dress shoes). But for all of my shoes none of them smell at all anymore. This is an item that I plan on buying consistently. (I do not know yet how long these really last with regular use.)

I don't know but I love my boots, but you need to wear thick socks with them. I tilted it over on my bike these boots saved my foot from being crushed. and they save the body of the bike being scratched up. The bike ended up with a black scuff mark that wiped away.

Yes, they work great on dress boots and casual boots. I also use them on my dress shoes. No problems with stains on lighter colours. For my winter boots, I recently tried this product instead: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ZTXPJ6/ref=oh_details_o09_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. It works great, but it does darken the colour on anything not black, and changes the feel of the boots since it's basically applying a layer of silicone. For normal, everyday wear (including in rain), I stick with the product you have asked about.

I bought it for worn spots on leather seats. It seems like it wipes off rather easy. It is similar to shoe polish that you mix and try to match the leather color. Shoe polish would be better for shoes/boots, I would think.

I used this on a pair of suede boots. So far it's lasted one winter and I'll spray them again before this winter begins. You should reapply according to use and what you're trying to waterproof. Be sure to use in a well ventilated place. Hope this helps.

Yes. If you can imagine what the boot would look like soaking wet, that is the color this product will permanently make your boot.

Bought red snow shoes - better contrast in the white snow. Can't imagine the white shoes will not get dirty- what doesn't?

i would say yes to the suede boots. use two or three coats and allow to dry thoroughly. it will look darker at first, but after about a day they will return to original color!

A little goes a long way. Depending on the wear and abuse of your boots, I would think of months or years instead of number of times. In other words, you'll get your money's worth with Sno Seal.

Rain and snow, but for salt, you should look for a rubber lock boot to slide over it. Salt will rust or oxidize anything. Either that or lots of oil to repel the sodium... Good luck my friend.

it will darken your boots a little, it probably takes the place of the oil since you need to heat the boots up so that it will absorb the wax, it did soften the leather and if you work in mud like I do, the mud does absorb the wax and it will need to be reapplied every month or two

According to Bick, it will not darken leather; but they recommend checking. It has not darkened my boots; good stuff.
