I have not used the renovator yet just the Creme, med brown to take the scuffs out and works great for me so far. It really does only take a dime size to clean the shoes.

The way I read it you use the renovator once a year to make sure the leather doesn't dry out, though the crem has kept my shoes nice and supple (is that the right word, oh well.) and not sure I should have bothered getting it but have some other leather goods in desperate need of attention.


I use the MAc method as close as I can when cleaning my shoes
