text: I had purchased this product to waterproof my new handmade leather greek sandals. First off, the product did not contain instructions, but from reading others' reviews I gathered that you are to rub in the product and then buff it off. I did so and had high hopes. About a week passes and then some light rain...sadly my sandals are completely stained. I'm very sad that my brand new handmade sandals are ruined and I would highly recommend that you NOT buy this product if you are about your leather shoes.
