Amiral Gloss – Leather Shoe Care Polish Wax for High Gloss Mirror Shine for Dress Shoes - 50 ml

I clean up and polish boots for a senior center. This wax is great! I use it as the last procedure when cleaning up the boots and it does such a good job of not only shining up the boots but also putting a nice protective finish. I have used this product for years and absolutely love it. Easy to rub on and shine up. Excellent product and beautiful finish! I highly recommend.

It’s a fine polish and goes on smooth. Ideal for toe caps and heels. On par with, and maybe a touch higher than Kiwi Parade gloss in terms of shine and ease of application. The reflectiveness is outstanding, however some of the polish flaked off on its own. I believe this can be solved with a good dry buff after a few layers.

Excellent product.

When used as directed, you can get a really great shine. I use it after I use Lincoln wax. Amiral Gloss gives it that finishing touch.

amazing product

Arrived partially dried out and flaking, but still managed to work decently the first try with no special preparations. Will try again with water to see how that goes. Fairly hard wax, but again was partially dried. Crumbled a lot using an application brush. Brushed out easily and buffed to good shine, but nothing better than regular Kiwi does. Didn't have that Kiwi smell though, so that's always a plus if odors bother you. Time will tell if it is a good value. The color was a nice, deep black.

Amazing shine on all my leather boots and shoes.

The best polish for bullying shoes to a patent shine.

ottima patina per le scarpe, ottima qualità, rende le scarpe lucentissime

I bought this polish after seeing a number of reports online about how well it delivers a real high gloss finish. I wanted to put that claim to the test on a pair of shoes that are over five years old and well worn. The results were impressive: within a few minutes the leather had gone from flat and tired to a bright, mirror-like shine that looked almost brand new. Application The application process is simple but does take a bit of technique. Each shoe took me around three minutes. The polish itself comes in a small, firm tin. It isn’t soft like some creams, so I found that adding a touch of water to the brush helped loosen the texture and spread it more evenly across the leather. Once applied, I let it settle for a moment and then went over it with a horsehair brush to bring the shine out. Even during the first buff you could see the difference building up quickly. ⸻ Finish (Before & After) The results speak for themselves, and I’ve included before/after photos to show the transformation. The leather, which had looked dull and scuffed, developed a deep gloss after just one coat and a quick buff. On a shine scale I’d call it a solid 4/5 for this type of polish. The difference between the untreated shoe and the polished one is clear even in normal indoor light, and in daylight the reflection is even more striking. Durability One of my concerns was whether the shine would last or fade quickly. After wearing the shoes for a day, the polish held up well — they still looked glossy, with only minor dulling on flex points. A quick two-minute rebuff brought them right back to their best. I also tested them with a little rain, and the water beaded on the surface rather than soaking into the leather. The finish dulled slightly after exposure, but did not streak or wash away, which is a good sign for day-to-day use. Quirks Because the polish is packed into a small tin and is quite firm, it can feel a little tricky to work with at first. I recommend using a brush rather than just a cloth, and keeping a small amount of water to hand for easier spreading. Once you know that, the product is straightforward to use. The scent is noticeable when you first open the tin, but it isn’t unpleasant and fades after buffing. Costs & Value Although the tin is small, a little really does go a long way. After polishing one pair of shoes I had barely made a dent in the surface. I’d expect a single tin to last through 20–25 full polishes, depending on how generously you apply it. Considering the finish and durability, I think that although expensive it represents good value. Verdict This polish completely changed the look of a five-year-old pair of shoes, giving them a finish that rivals new leather. It does require a bit more effort than a cream polish. Good if you want long-lasting shine and are prepared to spend a few minutes applying and buffing. The best way to think of the polish is as an extra layer adding a deeper shine. Skip if you prefer a softer polish that’s faster for everyday touch-ups.

I believe this gloss is the only one that should be used for all colors to obtain the mirror shine. I find it works better than the colored ones
