Rajiv doesn't own a lot of footwear, but he takes care of the boots and shoes he wears and loves. Polishing Shoes, a basic skill that everyone should have.

Correction: Rajiv mentioned two types of shoe polish, turpentine-based and alcohol based. The two main type of shoe polish are actually:
"Wax-Based": the type of polish Rajiv used in this video, containing wax and a solvent (turpentine). These polishes are generally a hard cake inside the tin.

"Cream-Emulsion": containing some waxes but also water and emulsifiers (like ammonia). These polishes have a creamy consistency, like softened cream cheese.

To achieve the results in this video, use a wax-based shoe polish.
