[@Snugglez187]

You seem to be confused about what Rénovateur is for. It's a leather conditioner, not a polish. It's to rehydrate and condition clean, dry leather BEFORE you polish. Rub a small amount into freshly cleaned and dry shoes just like you would apply moisturizer to yout own skin. Let it dry, and then brush your shoes. It should soak right into the leather and not leave any residue on the surface. THEN polish your shoes. It's really easy stuff to use. It's just a conditioner. It needs to be able to absorb into the leather though. Don't put it on top of a thick layer of old wax. Strip the old polish off, clean your shoes, condition the leather, and then give them a fresh polish. It couldn't be easier. 🤷‍♂️

So firstly, watching the right videos from the people who know what they’re talking about when it comes to shoe care is a must. From everything I have gathered Renovateur is not something that is supposed to be used often. Typically, you would use Renovateur on a pair of shoes that you just purchased that are coming off the shelf where they have most likely been sitting for long periods which drys out the leather over time. Yes, when you apply Renovateur to a new shoe where the leather has been drying out it is going to change the color of the shoe because you are reapplying moisture to the leather through conditioning it. After the first use you really should only need to use a creme or a combo of a creme and polish. If you don’t take care of your shoes or just let them sit for long periods of time you may only need to use Renovateur like once MAYBE twice a year. This also solves your problem of going through it so quickly.

[@Kudusole]

[@gritsteel4559]

That's exactly true, beginners should listen to professionals. Renovateur is a conditioner, and as a conditioner, like pure mink oil or any other brand's conditioner, it is not a polish, and it is not to be used regularly. Easy to search on google what and when to use a conditioner.

[@Nathan-zw7nq]

@@Kudusoletry Saphir’s Universelle for more regular conditioning. It’s a very gentle lotion and and is less expensive; $15 for 150mL versus $30 for 75mL of Renovateur (where I’m from, at least).

[@Naurif]

This isn't a product that you should be using once a month for a shoe shine, as it isn't meant for polishing: it's a conditioner (or a reconditioner). If the shoes have been sitting for quite some time or you've beaten the hell out of them and worn them in all kinds of bad weather and haven't taken care of them, that's when you break out this product. And it doesn't take much product to breathe some life back into the shoes (or boots), so you've probably applied too much product to your shoes (that probably didn't need too much conditioning in the first place). I know it's costly, but I look at it as not that expensive because this is something that only goes on once a year or so. And please--don't use this on your Shell Cordovan shoes! Sapphir makes a Cordovan cream if you want to use that for the Shells that you own.

[@willisix2554]

There is no reason you should not use it on Shell

[@Naurif]

@@willisix2554 Oh really? That's good to know! Renovateur for my calfskin shoes and boots is a good product. But I was taught that Shell doesn't need a conditioner like Renovateur--particularly the lighter colors like the Natural, Amaretto, and Whiskey. I was told that Saphir's Cordovan cream (or a Venetian shoe cream) is the way to go for Shell care. I was also told that a product like Renovateur could possibly darken the Shell and matte its luster, so I've avoided it. I love Horween's Color #8, so all of the Shell Cordovan products I own are in that color (I don't own any Shinki Cordovan products). I don't want them to lose the shiny finish or darken to a near black. I was also taught that Shell Cordovan didn't really need to be polished per se. I have to admit that I didn't believe this at first. But I tried just brushing the products, and it works. I brush the living hell out of the products (especially my wallet), and the nicks, scuffs, and scratches really fill in. The shine is crazy; it's really reflective. But it's really odd though. Sometimes, I can brush for like three or four minutes, and pow, instant shine! But then there are times when I'm brushing for like ten to twelve minutes, and nothing is happening. Anyway, thanks for sharing. It's boot season, and I'm about to break them out for the first time since last season. I might try the Renovateur and see what happens.

[@troyfraser5395]

It is excellent for what it is designed to do. It reconditions and hydrates the leather. Once clean any old polish off, use renovateur to rehydrate and condition leather, sapphire creams for colour and shine and polishes for more shine and protection. You didn’t get lucky with it. You probably used it for it’s actual purpose so hot good results.

[@lapizza7206]

I don't want to be rude but most of the information in this video is flat out wrong. I've yet to see anyone use even Renovateur to cause any white residue. That's because while it does have waxes it doesn't contain much. Using this product would make a light shine. Beginner or not this isn't rocket science. Just put it on the shoe and buff...

[@Kudusole]

Thanks for the comment! I disagree because beginners have no clue how much to put or how long they have to buff for. If someone knows how to do that, are they truly a beginner? Yeah, it's not a rocket science, but it's not a natural thing to know either, especially if someone has never seen a shoe cream before.

[@i.o.3563]

​@@Kudusole come on, you have instruction on the jar. Adequate people wouldn't apply half of the jar on a pair. Even in combination with cream, which I don't find very practical, as cream is not far away from this product in action, you won't have any problem if you follow instructions and common sense. I like shoe waxes and apply them all over the shoes, no problem. Wax is supposed to be used on leather. Yes, you shouldn't wait like a week before buffing off, 5 min will be sufficient. Use harder brush and everything will be ok.

[@lordcharfield]

I totally agree with you 👍

[@ezra420420]

I put too much first time and it left residue because i didnt remove it from the creases properly

[@straycat62]

I also am one who got white residue from the waxes in Renevateur. (Been polishing/conditioning leather for 15 years)I was under the impression it was a nutrient and used it like such. Was not initially aware it had waxes in it. Through trial and error I have found I needed to buff w/i 3-5 minutes to prevent the residue. Then it works great. So to say no one has gotten white residue is wrong. I have 2 black leather jackets I need to clean/strip because of white residue in the creases.

[@hatimkhalifa]

The problem with Saphir Renovateur is not caused by the waxes because the concentration is just very small to cause any creasing whatsoever.The real problem is the large concentration of solvents in the creme. Renavateur is a no no for hand-painted patina because it will strip the finish. It is safe though with box calf especially black. Renovatuer is ideal after stripping the shoes especially when using acetone since it dries the hell out of the shoes. In my opinion, the best Saphir conditioner is Saphir Creme Universelle Balm. Try it and you will not regret.

[@isthisshortanduniqueenough]

Does the Creme Universelle Balm give a shiny finish? I have a pair of ECCO's white sneaker with matte pebble grain leather. Once I applied TRG Shoes Cream which contains beeswax, it gave a shiny finish which I don't like.

[@misssummersalt]

The Universelle Balm is beeswax and jojoba oil based.

[@raygowan1968]

I really like Renovateur. The only issue I have had using it is the first time it made my shoes sticky. I pretty much used about twice the amount I actually needed to. After letting my shoes sit for about 15 minutes and brushing again, everything was fine.

[@bs8010]

Thank you so much for this video, this has cleared up most of my mirror shining frustrations I have experienced. IMOP he is spot on, the same thing happened to me with the cracking. It left me scratching my head because I never had this happen before however, I never conditioned my shoes before (Lack of knowledge/military boots). Out of 5 pairs of AE shoes and a pair of Amberjacks, it happened to 3 of them and for some reason it was mainly the 2x AE cap toes and 1x Amberjack. Kirby Allison's staff told me it was because the quality of AE has diminished over the years however, I didn't think' this this sounded right because the quality of the leather is much higher on the AEs, than my military boots I used to mirror shine without any issues and this was using Kiwi not Saphir Pate De Luxe, that I use on my current dress shoes. When I did use the Renovateur, I would do one coat, wait 20-30 min and brush off, and then another coat and let sit overnight and then brush off and go into the actual polishing. They didn't crack until wearing them a full day. I just ordered the Nappa and will only use that from here on out with new shoes. I am sure that Renovateur is good stuff but I doubt it is any better than Nappa on New Shoes, especially when you are going to then use the Saphir Pommadier cream and Pate De Luxe. IMOP the Renovateur would be better suited for bringing older shoes back to life, don't waste your money if using on new shoes. Thanks again

I was a newbie yet I loved (and still love) the shine after applying and buffing the Renovateur. I don’t know how much you used that resulted in cracking but a little goes a long way, definitely not like regular leather conditioners. I still have 2/3 of my Renovateur after more than a year and I’ve used in on several pairs including tall boots quite regularly as polishing shoes is a hobby to me

[@cannibalholocaust3015]

Crème 1925 is nice to use when the leather is in good condition already, it’s smells great. I only use renovateur after stripping polish off with Renomat and washing with saddle soap. Let leather dry as necessary, and with Renomat you need to make sure it’s all evaporated dry or else it’ll just break down the Renovateur. Use small amounts , mistake I made in beginning was putting it on like suncream. Let it dry for 5 minutes and buff. Smells divine !

[@FrancisAsin-Gioro]

I don’t believe that proper use of renovateur causes any problems even for museum calf . It’s quite simple and barely confusing. Just dip a lit bit with a cloth to remove the old wax and dust. Then job done. Sometimes the leather appears quite dry and need to be conditioned and renovateur is best in this case.

[@MIIIB]

I don't agree with most of your observations in regarda the Reno. I been using a lot Reno in all my CXL, Veg Tan and Oil Tan leathers. It's a wonderful cream to use. It's water based with waxes. ANY leather will patina with OR without conditioners. Unless it's save in a dark and dry place in eternity. It dark leather a bit shade but it's helps to condition it a lot better than most products. Beginners or not this it's not oil, grease or wax that will dark a LOT any leather. Amount to apply? Leather will tell you. Brush, brush,. Brush a lot and will fade residue. Like any other conditioner. This it's my .02 only.

[@Kudusole]

Thanks for the comment my guy!!

[@The_Other_Matt]

Another one to be careful with, though less common, is Saphir's Oiled Leather (Cuir Gras) cream. It's a great conditioner on oil tanned leather. I've used it to spruce up a pair of Warfield & Grand Heist boots in brown oil tan leather. I foolishly used it on some boots in Siedel Double Shot (combination tanned with a slightly waxy finish) to rub out some scuffs on the toe cap. The high neatsfoot oil content gave this leather a wet feel, dulled the waxy surface finish and darkened it a bit. Fortunately it was only on one toe cap and seems to be slowly buffing out and color reverting to normal with wear. Lesson learned to not grab whatever is conveniently at the bench during a late night cleaning session.

Is Saphir Medaille D'Or Renovator Cream with Macadamia Oil better for keeping the original leather colour and shade compared with the version that uses mink oil? Is it easier to use with the macadamia oil? I believe mink oil darkens the leather a shade even with Saphir products.

The Renovateur should be used when heavily used shoes require hydration. It should be used once a year. All in all, it will depend on the shoe usage and its environment. It is not recommended for timely basis applications, as we do with the hard waxes. But, in general is and outstanding product.

Поясню для русскоговорящих, автор изумительно запутался . Средство создано не для полировки. Оно является завершающим этапом очищения после (к примеру saphir-ор RenoMat) и в первую очередь кондиционером-увлажнителем Не стоит ждать от него сверх очищения, но и можно наносить на один слой меньше двухкомпонентного очистителя(С каждой парой индивидуально, нужно прочувствовать), но увлажняет он прекрасно. При условии, что вы очистили кожу "До открытых пор". Абсолютно точно не следует его наносить на забытые поры или как "Уход между прочим",при неправильно использовании, минимум стоит ждать посредственный эффект, максимум отрицательный. Рекомендации для братков: - не использовать при каждом базовом уходе. -после нанесения средство должно впитаться, после заполировать. -наносить в перчатках, одним пальцем, очень тонким слоем (Бессмысленно и дорого наносить несколько слоев). -сушить в проветриваемом помещении при комнатной температуре. The product is not intended for polishing. It is the final stage of cleansing (such as saphir RenoMat) and above all a conditioner-humidifier.You should not expect it to over-clean, but you can apply one layer less than a two-part cleanser (with each pair individually, you need to feel), but it moisturizes perfectly. As long as you have pre-cleaned your skin "Till Open Pores." Categorically not to be applied to neglected pores or as "Every Day Care," if used improperly, you should expect at least mediocre effects, at most negative. Recommendations: - Do not use with every basic care. -After application, soak in, then buff off. -Apply with gloves, one finger, in a very thin layer (it is pointless and expensive to apply several coats). -Dry in a ventilated room at room temperature.

It's a good product for certain uses but unnecessary for conditioning your shoes. Cheaper alternatives can even work better. Kind of like using expensive hair shampoo as detergent for clothing when clothing detergent is cheaper and works better.

[@tawhneebaby]

It's important to know what each product is used for. We all know how to wash our bodies and faces so i will use the human face as an example. 1. Wash, 2. Moisturize, 3. Makeup, 4. Set/protect the final look. If we were to translate that to cow skin (leather), we would then 1. Wash (shoe cleaner), 2. Moisturize/condition (renovateur) 3. Makeup (dye, wax, etc.), 4. Set/protect (waterproofer). You wouldnt put lotion over makeup because it will cause it to look cakey. You wouldn't put renovateur over wax for the same reason. All moisturizers have an oily-ish substance in it, but that doesnt function as wax. It helps with keeping the skin/leather supple. So, when you are servicing your shoes, remember that you have to strip the wax off before you use the renovateur, then add the dye and wax to repair the color and shine. After that, use a waterproof spray (optional), but in that order only. Hope this helps.

For me all shoes products with wax in it like shoe cream, wax polish and Saphir Renovateur are useless. Wax makes the laether dryer, more cracky and less breathable. So what is the point of using them? The point is that when you apply wax product on you shoes and want it later on to take care of your shoes again - then you have to BUY new product like saddle soap or Saphir Renomat to remove the wax that you applied before. So the customer must BUY two products instead of one! Make sense now? Mind you that sophisticated shoes gurus claim you have to use ….. five different shoe care products if you want your shoes to last. It makes you BUY five products. I am resistable to all this marketing crap as I worked years in advertising business. I am using only one product for cleaning my leather shoes - that is Tarrago Mink Oil 100 ml. In Europe it costs me equivalent of 7 dollars. You can also use other non mink oils. Once I used even my face cream for the shoes and it worked much better than a wax polish :) Good oil softens the leather, moistens it and makes it waterproof. And thanks to it all of my shoes are in great condition and I don't spend long hours on cleaning them. Want to keep shoes care companies with high profits and spend more money?

renovator contains mink oil and it will darken leather... so do not use on light colored shoes unless you want them darker. renovateur is overpriced for what it is.. nothing special and it darkens leather. it's a pass for me.
