    That's how we "spit shined" boots when I was a recruit. Pile on the wax to fill the grain and get a good foundation, melt it with a lighter (carefully), then use water and more wax for the shine.

    Hey gents, This is my first post at all on the forums. I've been lurking for a week or so. My interest in nice clothing has been rekindled thanks to my girlfriend and in browsing the net I stumbled upon styleforum, and then this amazing thread. Anyway, I found this Donegal tweed at Goodwill a...
