This morning I felt my toe cap a little bit too black, I used hair dryer to melt the hard wax and re-apply again. And finally done for both shoes, I think now better than yesterday. 😊😊

Wow, they turned out great. I was going to point out that the contrast in the first photo was too much.

Actually does the wax/creme color make a lot of difference? If we want to try other color in future, we just clean up the shoe and switch other color?

It depends on what you want to achieve, some prefer to maintain their original shoe colour, some wants to burnish the heels/toes and some use only one brown colour for all their brown shoes (probably to save money).
If the wax or cream colour is lighter than the shoe, it may not affect the colour. If it is darker than the shoe, after long a period, it will darken it permanently even after cleaning.
Its like leaving a washable stain on a white shirt, wash it soon it will be white again, leave the stain on long enough, a stain that's supposed to be washable will also leave a mark.

Hi guys need help
this new boots I worn for few days found some marking on leather
don't recall have any oil or tar spilled

Horween Chromexcel leather

1st pic = cleaned with saddle soap (wet)
2nd pic = cleaned with saddle soap (dried)
3rd pic = original color

as I use my boots carefully and only use Saphir shoe cream for condition
shouldn't leave any blemish on the leather

How can I remove the blemish?
have a bit OCD when found imperfection

Appreciate any advice.. thanks
