Grangers Leather ProtectionG-Wax Tin

I have been using grangers g wax for years. I use it on my old leather walking boots to waterproof them for the wet season. Easy to apply with a cloth, then I use a hair dryer to melt the wax so that it is easier to rub into the seems. It has always worked well for me. 1 think to note is that when opening the new tin there was a distinct colour difference from my old tin. Perhaps a recipe change? Let's hope it's still as good.

I’ve used this on my wrangler chunky sole sandals and they’ve come up a treat. The tin was bigger than I expected, it has a nice light aroma and gives a lovely shine. Not a lot is needed as it very easily spreads and best to use an old rag as it does colour the cloth but so easy to apply. I’ve had my wrangler flip flop sandals for ten years and they’ve been through a good few scrapes and beatings but they’re still going strong and now look as good as new, though the wax also does give a slightly darker look but that wears off eventually. At such a good price, I definitely recommend this wax.

Used on motorbike boots after using there cleaner good combination

I bought these for my partner's work shoes as it protects the leather and helps them remain waterproof; he is happy with it, and it helps the shoes last longer.

First off... a word about the people who supplied me via Amazon. In this instance it was Active Outdoors (also possibly known as Spinn.co.uk...both names featured during my correspondence with them). My delivery went slightly awry as the parcel was split and only one tin was inside instead of the two I ordered. Having contacted the supplier, who hardly ever have issues with the strength of the packaging, I suspect the parcel had been tampered with somewhere in the Royal Mail system (there was a clean-ish cut right across the package which didn't look as though it could easily have happened accidentally), and I did make representations to the Post Office, however the suppliers responded to my email almost straight away and kindly offered to send a replacement - which they did and which arrived literally the next day, having been sent First Class post. Absolutely first class service from them - thank you. And back to the item.... As per the title. Used it on boots mainly and never had cause to regret it. There is currently a choice of numerous products to treat your boots and other leather outdoor wear with. As well as G Wax you could use dubbin (both the hard 'Woly Wax' and the soft 'Cherry Blossom' dubbin....see my reviews), or Nikwax Aqueous Liguid, then there's Neatsfoot Oil or Hydrophane Leather Dressing Oil as well as ordinary shoe polish - either black, brown or neutral. I honestly think you could use any of the above (and I have used all the above) and you'd preserve the leather but I'd say the G wax is as easy and as effective as any and there would be no possibility of the dubbin rotting stitching, as per the old wives tale. Certainly it's the one almost universally recommended by manufacturers and it wouldn't prejudice any warranty you might have whereas not everyone loves dubbin. The Nikwax Aqueous Liquid is good for wet boots, after you've cleaned and rinsed them, but takes a while to treat the boots all over as you really need to brush it on then work it in with your fingers....but it does soak in well and is good stuff. If using G Wax or dubbin I've always warmed up the boots, whilst applying it, with a hairdryer or electric paint stripper set on low and that helps the stuff to soak into the stitching. The G Wax does polish up quite well albeit not as well as ordinary shoe polish does. Lastly I routinely treat fabric or suede or nubuck boots with G Wax (and sometimes dubbin) and have NEVER had a scrap of trouble...whether it be Goretex lined boots or otherwise. In my opinion nubuck/suede/fabric boots need a good treatment of waterproofer as per above and none of my boots make me sweat unduly and are all waterproof. The spray on suede stuff isn't worth buying (IMO) so ALL my boots get regularly maintained with proper treatments. (And I have to admit, I've got a few!).

Does what it says on the tin

I tried this after years of plastering my walking boots in regular polish and can say the following. : the tin suggests thin layers and I will agree with this, it does not spread on that easilly unless you heat either your boots up with a hair dryer or put the tin in hot water to liquefy the contents a bit. :water proofing is excellent, I ran my boots under the tap after applying and the water just beaded off, my boots were bone dry. : I did go a bit overboard with my first application of the wax and found that even after being melted into the leather with a hairdryer I had white patches appearing in the creases of the boot after the wax solidified and the movement of my foot cracked it. a brief scrub with a boot cleaning brush scraped off the excess. : one tin will go a long way I think one tin will easily last me a year of walks in the rain etc. : I will say do not use this product if you intend on getting a spotless bulling on your boots, polish and this stuff dont mix well so make your choice and either go for polish or wax, the wax is far better for rain and walking in but you will never achieve a decent shine on your boots using this. please click the helpful tab if you found my experiences useful
