How to use
Best is to spray Saphir Medaille d'Or Super Invulner on shoes that are relatively clean. If the shoes are very dirty, wash them first with a mild cleaner like Saphir Omninettoyant and make sure they dry properly. Suede shoes are then brushed with a good suede brush which lifts the fibres. If the suede need more deep care and re-colouring, first use Saphir Medaille d'Or Suede Renovateur spray. If the shoes are more moderately dirty you only do the step with the suede brush and get rid of the dirt with that.
Spray evenly over the entire shoe from about 20 cm distance. Super Invulner is highly concentrated, so one layer around the shoe is enough. This is done outside. After 10-15 minutes you can go over the shoes gently with the suede brush, or use a regular shoe brush with horsehair. You now have a very good protection against water and dirt that goes deeper into the material. How often the shoes needs spraying depends on the conditions they are used in and how often they are worn, but around ones a month with normal use.
Make sure to brush off the shoes after every use so dirt doesn't get a chance to sit. If the shoes are washed, you need to re-new the protection.
