You should only use neutral wax for finishing your mirror shines, once you have already set the base of the shine with colored cream and wax polishes that have penetrated the pores. The neutral wax is best utilized as a top-coat application that helps to bring up the mirror shine on top of the covered pores. Its neutral coloring will act as the mirror gloss while not affecting the pores and leather already treated below it. That is what is neutral wax is for: Top Coat Shines. The application process is simple and rewarding. Begin by ensuring your shoes are clean and dry. Then, using a cloth or polish applicator, apply the KIWI Shoe Polish evenly.

Neutral Wax is the cause of many issues in the shoe-care realm of the shoe industry. Namely by regular people (i.e. no professional shiners). You see, most assume you need to use it on any color you don’t have an exact match for. That’s a myth. Get this idea out of your head. Now. Over the years, Kiwi has been owned by a variety of corporations. For the first six decades of its existence, it was one of the iterations of an Australian corporation with Kiwi in its name, all based in the state of Victoria, including Kiwi Boot Polish Co. (1913–1916) and Kiwi Polish Co. (1916–1971). The company then joined with Nicholas International Ltd., a Melbourne-based pharmaceutical company producing international brands such as Aspro and Rennie. The new company was renamed Nicholas Kiwi. Kiwi was a major improvement on previous brands. It preserved shoe leather, made it shine, and restored colour. By the time Kiwi Dark Tan was released in 1908, it incorporated agents that added suppleness and water resistance. Australian-made boot polish was then considered the world's best. A range of colours became available, and exports began to Britain, continental Europe, and New Zealand.
