It’s absolute crap , any old soldier expecting a shine forget it go and buy Kiwi or Cherry Blossom and do the job right. As far as I am concerned it’s £20 wasted
Well being ex-Military I am used to “Spit and Polish”, which I have continued to do since leaving in 1999. My husband, also ex-Mil attends the Remembrance Service in London every year so that’s a lot... See more

It was a very easy product to apply and the results were instantaneous. I tried it on a pair of shoes that were not in a very good condition, but the shine was remarkable

Left a haze on the surface of the leather. I achieve better results with polish, brushes and nylon.

Tin impossible to open
Received the tin of Shinebuddi today but it is proving impossible for anyone to open it, the lid is locked solid & there is no edge to lever against to prise lid upwards. Don’t want to use heat because of possible detrimental effect on contents. Tried asking for advice via email address on receipt but email returned not found. Perhaps you could contact me Chris re order #1107

Not as good as advertised
Not as good as advertised. I expected much more of a shine. No instructions as how best to apply the product. Overall disappointing

Was expecting a shoe polish sized tin of a cream/wax type product. Actual tin is much smaller and contains a sponge with some liquid in it. Made my shoes dull. Definitely not worth £20 and won’t he buying again
