BEAUTÉ DU CUIR Renomat Cleaner - Prepares Leather - Removes Polishes, Waxes and dirt - Made in France - 100 mL

Get rid of the excess wax and product on your leathers and turning the surface to a “mate” finish. Strong “paint thinner” smell, definitely not as natural has their other products but gets the job done. I got similar instant results with regular gasoline but trust Saphir’s brand to be better in the long run loll A small amount was good enough and didn’t remove original factory colours but that depends on the leathers :-)

I used boot stretcher spray on my new leather boots and it stained the leather. I thought I’d ruined them, but I bought this and applied it to the stained area liberally and let it dry and they’re perfect again! I can treat them with Dubbin to waterproof them now and they will look stunning!

An example of one of my Cognac-colored shoes that were mirror-polished with Brown shoe polish. I decided I wanted to remove the brown and mirror-shine with neutral instead. This product removed the brown easily.

It removes all teh previous wax gently and very quickly. Essential for any shoe lover.

Un-loved pair of leather Oxford shoes were taken out to wear and covered with salt stains - my bad! Looked online and did a 4-day process: Day 1: rubbed the shoes with a mixture of baking soda and watered-down white vinegar, I left them to dry overnight. Did this twice. Day 3 and 4: applied this liquid allowed them to dry again overnight and repeated the application of this fluid (with a clean rag) and bang! The next morning the shoes were totally clean and ready to be re-polished. In effect the combination of the baking soda/vinegar stripped off the salt and this liquid removes and lingering polish, taking the shoes almost down to plain leather. Now, the shoes are like new. Bit expensive for so small a bottle (?) and I used 1/3 of it on one pair of shoes but far, far cheaper than a cobblers or a new pair of oxfords! Recommend this.
