avocado- i am using the shoe shine with wax (those that you just wipe on) on the anakin "leather" to prevent from drying. I guess you have to take care of it as though as your working shoe (if you are working). Leather or synthetic leather will dry up and harden if you dont wear it often or you dont wax it to soften. Once dried up it will crack or peel. i noticed my anakin leather is dull and dried. Guess the previous owner just kept in box. I applied the shoe shin and the leather has some shine and soften...BTW try at your own risk. Use black or the clear shine...

QUOTE(advocado @ Jan 6 2009, 10:36 PM) maul the shoe shine you use is like pen or use cloth and dip it coz mine is pen type the surface are is quite big i don't know how to polish it properly. right now it is still shiny looks like it has a top coat but small spots are failing you press it it will defor those parts become dull, and the leather like linings are gone on those parts. Right now i applied abit of paper glue to keep it from coming out. Have been thinking about shoe/leather polisher for a while but because they are not real leather so i don't know how the outcome will be. I use is like pen. Squeeze it on cloth and wipe it. It will shine beginning but will not after drying.
