This product does what it says on the pot, it also offers stunning value, as a pot of Renapur lasts and lasts. It won’t dry out – even if you leave the lid off the pot. Renapur Leather Balsam is perfect for all finished leather shoes but not suede and nubuck. It is so easy and quick to use – cleans and polishes all the children's shoes in seconds, whatever the colour. It is not messy, greasy or smelly. The colours is neutral so you can use it on black, blue, brown or even pink shoes. It keeps leather soft and supple, helping to prevent drying out and cracking. It restores the colour to leather and brings the colour back to scuff marks and scratches (very important for children's shoes). It helps waterproof leather as well. Comes with a soft sponge.
