## Overview

Saphir Amiral Gloss is a premium 50mL French-made wax polish designed for serious shoe enthusiasts seeking a high-gloss, mirror finish on smooth leather shoes and accessories. Its beeswax-rich formula not only delivers a radiant shine but also creates a durable, waterproof barrier protecting leather from wear and dirt. Ideal for polished dress shoes, this paste requires a clean, treated base and a bit of technique, rewarding users with a long-lasting, showroom-worthy gloss that enhances leather’s natural color depth.

## Description

Amiral Gloss by Saphir helps you create a mirror finish on your leather shoes. Its oily texture makes it easy to apply when you want to produce that high-gloss shine on the ends of your shoes. It contains higher concentrations of beeswax making it a perfect choice for giving a radiant shine on any smooth leather item while creating a waterproof barrier to protect the leather against impact damage and dirt. The Saphir Amiral Gloss polish is an everyday favorite among shoe care experts for glossing leather shoes. Use the Saphir Amiral Gloss polish paste only on leather that has been cleaned and treated with a shoe cream. Never apply the polish paste to unclean and untreated leather as it contains no nourishing elements and could damage the leather. With this highly recommended product, a cotton polishing cloth and a bit of water are all you need to get that mirror finish on your shoes. Store your Saphir Amiral Gloss polish in a cool, dry place and make sure to close the tin properly in order to prevent the polish from drying out.

Review: High Shine Polish - Adds a deep shine to old and new. - I bought this polish after seeing a number of reports online about how well it delivers a real high gloss finish. I wanted to put that claim to the test on a pair of shoes that are over five years old and well worn. The results were impressive: within a few minutes the leather had gone from flat and tired to a bright, mirror-like shine that looked almost brand new. Application The application process is simple but does take a bit of technique. Each shoe took me around three minutes. The polish itself comes in a small, firm tin. It isn’t soft like some creams, so I found that adding a touch of water to the brush helped loosen the texture and spread it more evenly across the leather. Once applied, I let it settle for a moment and then went over it with a horsehair brush to bring the shine out. Even during the first buff you could see the difference building up quickly. ⸻ Finish (Before & After) The results speak for themselves, and I’ve included before/after photos to show the transformation. The leather, which had looked dull and scuffed, developed a deep gloss after just one coat and a quick buff. On a shine scale I’d call it a solid 4/5 for this type of polish. The difference between the untreated shoe and the polished one is clear even in normal indoor light, and in daylight the reflection is even more striking. Durability One of my concerns was whether the shine would last or fade quickly. After wearing the shoes for a day, the polish held up well — they still looked glossy, with only minor dulling on flex points. A quick two-minute rebuff brought them right back to their best. I also tested them with a little rain, and the water beaded on the surface rather than soaking into the leather. The finish dulled slightly after exposure, but did not streak or wash away, which is a good sign for day-to-day use. Quirks Because the polish is packed into a small tin and is quite firm, it can feel a little tricky to work with at first. I recommend using a brush rather than just a cloth, and keeping a small amount of water to hand for easier spreading. Once you know that, the product is straightforward to use. The scent is noticeable when you first open the tin, but it isn’t unpleasant and fades after buffing. Costs & Value Although the tin is small, a little really does go a long way. After polishing one pair of shoes I had barely made a dent in the surface. I’d expect a single tin to last through 20–25 full polishes, depending on how generously you apply it. Considering the finish and durability, I think that although expensive it represents good value. Verdict This polish completely changed the look of a five-year-old pair of shoes, giving them a finish that rivals new leather. It does require a bit more effort than a cream polish. Good if you want long-lasting shine and are prepared to spend a few minutes applying and buffing. The best way to think of the polish is as an extra layer adding a deeper shine. Skip if you prefer a softer polish that’s faster for everyday touch-ups.
Review: The Ultimate Mirror Shine - If you're chasing that coveted, deep mirror shine, the SAPHIR BEAUTÉ DU CUIR Amiral Gloss polish is an absolute must-have. Having used countless polishes over the years, I can confidently say this one stands out for its exceptional clarity and ability to produce a brilliant, high-definition gloss with minimal effort. I put this product through its paces on two challenging but rewarding types of leather: my core pair of black dress shoes and a vibrant pair of multitone tan shoes. The results were nothing short of great on both. For the black shoes, the difference between the Amiral Gloss and standard polishes was immediately noticeable. The wax applied cleanly, building up a flawless, glassy layer on the toe caps that truly achieved that mirror finish. Crucially, it didn't haze or streak. What truly impressed me was its performance on the complex multitone tan leather. Often, strong waxes can mute the subtle color variations on lighter or mixed-color shoes, but the Amiral Gloss enhanced the depth of the tan, providing a rich luminosity without compromising the leather's unique tonal character. The application was smooth and effortless, aided by my application method using a trusty Selvyt cloth. With just a small amount of polish and a touch of water, the wax leveled perfectly, making the final buffing stage quick and highly rewarding. For the serious shoe care enthusiast, the investment in SAPHIR is entirely justified. This polish not only delivers a superior, durable shine but also respects the quality and color of the leather. It’s a genuine shoe shine game-changer.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you have to buff with a brush to achieve  a shine?**
A: If you truly want a good, long-lasting shine, when you've finished: Brush hard with a stiff brush, brush briskly but lightly with a soft brush and finish with a hard scrub with a lint-free cloth. Be sure add a few tiny drops of water when applying the polish, in circular motion with a dry cloth. See YouTube for advice on getting a 'mirror shine'.

**Q: Would this work/be suitable on black faux leather?**
A: No, I recommend the product "tenax tincture" in aerosol.
cordially
Beatrice

**Q: Do you still have to polish shoes and then apply this or is this an all in one?**
A: This will polish up as a clear polish but I suggest using the shoe colour polish and then using this to get the extra shine. If you bulling shoes to a high shine then use this polish intermittently between layers to stop cracking.
