Hello,Reddit! If you dont know-i am new Radditman from Russia and i am shoemaker and my english is bad=)This is 2 post. Now we will make shoes polish(wax).It is not difficult process but it may be DANJER!This is a completely natural cream. It will repel water, keep the leather young(fresh) and allow her to breathe**1)**We are need;*Wax(50%)*paraffin(25%)-may be colored(ut make color for cream at end)*resin(rosin) (10%)*castor oil (but you can use linseed or burdock oil)(15%)*turpentineYou need take special mettal form for cream(i use for cakes)http://bit.ly/2viJgKk down the components and put in a container for meltinghttp://bit.ly/2Pws8dH (boil) WITHOUT turpentine and oil(will put it when wax will soft)Better use "water sauna"http://bit.ly/2veQe2X careful! Filling (wax) can break out and just splash boiling waterWhen WAX will super soft, put oil.When wax will be like water,remove from heat and put turpentine.Be EXTRA careful**!** Turpentine can make BOOM with fire! If it happend DONT use water!put blanket on fire(stop air).It can be if you will do it near fire or hot plate.Top up the oil and turpentine to the brim,filling the gaps between the wax. Pour not much. You will need to practice - the amount of turpentine depends on the final state of the cream - it will be very soft or a little strong. For first attempt put 40-70ml.http://bit.ly/2PohANF) Stirhttps://i.redd.it/q5fgiyzqeut21.jpg6) Well...7) gently pour into molds. and put at not hot place(better cold(but not refrigerator))Your soft cream must cool and dry(1-2days)http://bit.ly/2viFxMS) If cream is so fresh -cut it and make hot at water sauna again and put more wax\parafin and rosin. Is cream is strong- cut it,then water sauna and put more oil and тurpentinehttps://i.redd.it/stcccmyseut21.jpgI like when cream is like chees (not fresh like water and not strong like stone)If you want make many colors-you can put paint with wax before you will use "water sauna".Tataaam) You are the best! You can use it for your leather skins. It will close from water,but under leather your skin can breathe, it make soft leather and it can refresh the view for old leather.Dont use for suedeThx for your attention! via /r/DIY http://bit.ly/2IVznur
