Ah, but not any old Kiwi will do as they make stuff that doesn't work well with water, the one you want is Parade Gloss.

Ah, such memories. Spent hours doing just that. The youngsters of to-day should try it instead of b...dy trainers.

I do not know if they still sell it - but a coating of "Johnsons Kleer" over the top of polished boots brings them on really well - If it is for a kit inspection do not use this as you can tell if it has been used by breathing on them. Which can result in your boots being thrown out of the window if you are caught.

Those were the days

Anybody remember burning the pimples off of your new boots?

Hi 4GS - yes I was in the RAMC - and the covering the Kleer with polish was "invented" by a few of us at Ash Vale in 1978 (probably we were not the only ones to discover it) - I was never found out though - I wonder - did the person who taught you this trick go through A'Coll at Keogh Barracks at Ash Vale?
