And for general household cleaning.

These are going to be a pain to keep clean, but 4 coats of protector and mine are ready to go.

I usually keep my nubucks dry and clean them with a wire suede brush, anyone care to share any other tips.

Where did you get that Autoglym fabric protector?

I've been looking for that for my car for ages!

went for Scotchgard one instead.

Nice kicks BTW.

I got a Lifeshine kit off my mate who works in a body shop, he knows I've got a slight OCD to car cleaning.

Never used most of the stuff as there's far better products out there, but the protector has worked well on my P Playgrounds so I thought I'd give it a go on these too.

Last time I looked the kits were going for around £15 on the bay.

Has anybody else got any really dirty Superstars they need to clean cos I want someone else to try this method and tell me it fucking rocks !



Use the wrong end of the toothbrush like you're scratching DICKHEAD's gas guzzler with a screwdriver, then turn it on it's side to do the bottom edge.
Push quite hard and for some reason, it gets the soles well clean.

Dirty like these!!!



They are my Garden '02s that middle bit took a minute to scrub, I think these might be to far gone but I've cleaned up the DMC's I just got and I'm going to have a crack at my Tokyo's.

For normal dirt a winner for sure, for saving a wreck not so sure. Cheers P

lol adimac the leather looks like it has disintegrated in parts on that shoe or is it just dirt?

KFC refresher towels are always good for a light whipe for not too stubborn dirt i always ask for extra with my zinger burger! lol

haha, especially now that there is the 'ultimate burger meal'
that meal is massive... what was worse than that was the Hungry Jacks 'stunner deal' when it was first introduced
i felt sick after eating it as it was basically a medium whopper meal with a storm dessert.

hmmm... i need to try out those refresher towels one day.

My local KFC are foolish enough to have them in a container near the door...

Tried out one of those stain pens on a white canvas upper the other day. Worked quite nicely.
