STEP 1: Remove any dirt or dust from the shoe with a slightly damp cloth. Clean the sides of the sole and the heels as well. STEP 2: Buff dry with another dry cloth. STEP 3: Pour a little olive oil or vegetable oil onto a dry, white, soft, lint-free cloth. STEP 4: Gently rub cloth over entire top of shoe. STEP 5: Rub the entire shoe until all the oil has been absorbed and the shoe sparkles. STEP 6: Buff the shoe with a chamois cloth to bring out all the shineSTEP 7: Add a dab of petroleum jelly to a clean cloth and lightly buff the entire shoe to keep the leather supple and to prevent crackingAlways clean shoes first with a slightly damp cloth to remove any dirt or dust; this prevents scratches.
Use leather weatherproofer to keep water from leaving spots on shoes.

what you want is an airborne shine-ranger style:
1. brush good, so no dirt is in the leather
2. apply a regular shine
3. now is the fun part, take shoe polish and apply with your finger and cover everything in the book really good
4. apply another coat the same way.
5. take a candle and very lite pass over the shoe polish
6. apply another coat and repeat the procedure with the flame of the candle.
now take some cottom or a cloth-100%cottom- dip it on some water- it should feel damp to you
7. touch the damp cloth with the shoe polish and began in a small area to polish, repeating the procedure-water-squeeze and shoe polish
8 continue until you see the result.
to further bring the shine
apply another coat of shoe polish-go over with the flame- now take some cottom ball dip them on alcohol sqeeze the excess and proceed to rub in circular motion until you are satisfy.
9. now SHOW OFF. STAND STRAIGHT, HEADS UP, LOOK SHARP. LEAD THE WAY.

It takes some time to get them really shiny. some of the tricks I learned in the military is to melt the shine before applying it, use a soft moist cloth to apply it and then just keep buffing the shoes until you get the shine you want. The faster and finer the cloth you buff with the shinier the shoes

In the military they used to burn off the old wax and start over. You couldn't get a better shine to your boots than they did.
