[QUOTE="daveydempsey, post: 4345720, member: 22"]When I did my initial training in the military and the police we had to "Bull" our leather boots. Spit and polish. Black Kiwi polish and pure spit, no food or drinks to contaminate the spit. Small circular movements brought out a mirror finish. I've never done it since :D[/QUOTE]
