00:00 Expert Shoe Polishing Introduction
With Anders Sundström, the Swedish champion of shoe shining. Anders is taking us through the advanced stages of a shoe shine. This is where we transform that ordinary polish and shine into something really quite exquisite that you really don’t see anywhere else.
01:44 Building Layers
Build layers to create a base for the spit shine. The key here is building thin layers on top of each other because the biggest mistake most people do is grabbing a bunch of goo of the wax and trying to put that on the surface, and it will always result in failure.
Either, you won’t be able to release the shine to get a good shine or what will happen is that the the solvents in the bottom of the wax layer will not evaporate, but the top will, which means that the shrinkage isn’t not homogeneous and it cracks.
09:55 Let the Wax Settle (5-10 mins)
We’re not at finishing stage; we’re still in the build-up phase, but we need to release the spit shine to make a shiny surface.
20:42 Finishing Stage
This is where we’re just getting that explosive, sharp shine release. We applied multiple layers of wax to create that wax layer, covering the grains. We also released it to create a dull shine-let’s say- just to be able to build on it, to finish it.

    Wearing a Lange u.

    As someone who can shave with both it is easier to shave with a safety razor and has near no maintenance and the straight razor has no real advantage other than it can be cheaper in the extreme long term if you never replace your razor. Now disposable and cartridge razors are absolutely horrible and feel like they rip out every 5th hair on your face.

    The continental method? i grew up in the United states and that is the only way to eat. Switching is hands is considered poor manners. The American method seems more like a legitimization of what would be traditionally considered wrong. Haven't we destroyed the language enough, must we also remove Etiquette too? Funny... In my past i was sent to Europe to work, out of perhaps 25 other colleagues i was the only one offered to stay on the continent and I obliged. That decision has allowed me to be able to sit here and "waste time" commenting on this video. I ended up staying in Europe for nearly a decade and will always keep a residence there. At a business lunch i was told why i was asked to stay and promoted. The reason was my outward respect for culture and my table manners was brought up as an example. The other Americans basically ate with their hands, talked with their mouths full and held a knife and fork like they were grabbing a bicycle handlebar. This is noticed there but not in the USA. Basically the USA is a bit more lowbrow as most Americans find these points of etiquette superfluous if not impractical. Some see it as a sign of focusing on what is not important. I see the US as hyper-practical and as a result lacking in culture.

    when I want to wear a hat, I wear a hat. when I don't want to wear a hat, I don't. being a gentleman is more about being gentle and meekly polite, authentically, more than it is about following rule for dress that aren't always practical. I hope this didn't seem mean or bitter. I see so many new people in my home town these days that follow these rules, but have class lower than that of members of the "homeward bound" (hobo) community. may everyone having read this have a good day :)
