Before use, make sure the shoe is dry. Brush the suede surface with light, regular movements, always in the same direction, to remove dust and surface dirt. For more stubborn stains or to lift flattened nap, work with short, firm strokes, without pressing too hard so as not to damage the nap. When finished, brush the whole surface again to even out the nap. Do not use on smooth leather, on wet shoes or on fresh grease stains, which must be treated with specific products. Periodically clean dust and residues from the brush and store it in a dry place.
