Saphir Amiral Black Gloss, 50 ml

50ml tin of Saphir (World's leading) French shoe/boot polish; black. Unlike another well known shoe polish manufacturer, who uses a thin, small propelling 'wing nut' affair, to open their tins (often breaking off), Saphir simply (& effectively) screw open or close. As expected, a top quality, easy to apply polish, drying dull, buffing to a brilliant shine. The more layers, the greater and greater, lasting shine. Each time after the initial polish, becomes easier and easier to maintain the shine. These will pass muster on any soldier's boots. Only 4 out of 5 stars for value, because it is priced too dear for most budgets in comparison with the competition. However, in terms of performance/results, it's a winner. The closet rival that I have used, is a Parade Gloss but the Saphir is easier to apply and quicker at getting hoped for results. The polish smell is not as strong as some rivals, probably because of the higher quality ingredients used. See the photographs; one pair of boots is a work in progress & works on jackets, etc. too. Definitely a polished performer!

The product is amazing. But I'd expect nothing less after the research I've done. Delivery by Evri was a total joke. Not the sellers fault the company couldn't apologise enough and have said it's dropping evri. I will be buying some more saphir products in future.

Ce sont les meilleurs cirage et crème pour chaussures

Die Saphir Gloss ist mit Abstand die hochwertigste Schuhcreme, die ich je verwendet habe. In Kombination mit der normalen Saphir-Creme erzielt man ein edles, tiefes Finish mit tollem Glanz. Lässt sich gut verarbeiten, zieht schön ein und bringt jeden Lederschuh auf Hochglanzniveau. Für alle, die ihre Schuhe wirklich pflegen wollen – absolut empfehlenswert!

It’s a fine polish and goes on smooth. Ideal for toe caps and heels. On par with, and maybe a touch higher than Kiwi Parade gloss in terms of shine and ease of application. The reflectiveness is outstanding, however some of the polish flaked off on its own. I believe this can be solved with a good dry buff after a few layers.
