With My Larping Kit
the last time I polished my leather armour.

I only own a couple of leather armour bits
pretty red bracers with studs and green ones covered in mould. So no, I need the black polish

do you think acrylic paint will work?

No, not generally shiny enough.
How bad are they? rubbing some margarine into them might bring up a shine... I don't suppose you have any latex polishing spray?
(, Thu 20 Oct 2011, 21:26, Reply)
no
they've just kind of pealed. I've put some PVA on them to stop them getting worse I was hoping to make them look less terrible with shoe paint

might work
what kind of shoe are we talking here? Paint might be better than nothing, if you could polish over it.

Because you don't take good care of your boots.
and presumably don't have a backup pair.

you would assume correctly

Of course I do.
Much as you hate it I have you pegged just right.

Under the sink?

Ooh wait, I've got a better idea...
Don't polish your shoes.
Hope this helps.

You? no, actually I wouldn't.

Good, a defensible position.
I hope the new place is similarly on high ground.
(, Thu 20 Oct 2011, 21:39, Reply)
