How to Use

Preparation: Brush the shoes thoroughly to remove dust and surface dirt.

Application: Using a soft cotton cloth or a Saphir Applicator Brush, apply a small amount of Pâte de Luxe using small circular motions.

Massage: Work the wax gently into the leather, allowing the natural waxes and oils to nourish and protect the surface.

Build Layers: Apply one or two thin coats over the entire shoe, allowing approximately 5 minutes of drying time between each application.

Buff: Polish using a horsehair brush or a wool polishing glove to achieve an even, elegant shine.

Mirror Shine: For a high-gloss mirror finish, apply several thin layers to the toe cap and heel only. Avoid applying excessive wax to flex points such as the vamp, as thick wax layers may crack during wear.
