What’s a shoe buffer?

[ad_1]

An electric shoe buffer effortlessly removes marks and renews the polish on your shoes to keep them looking good. It comes with a small but powerful, totally enclosed electronic motor. The cranks at each end are fitted with replaceable conical dampers made of lambswool or synthetic material. Once the motor is engaged, the stops rotate to quickly and expertly shine shoes or boots. While standing in front of the buffer, simply bring the top of the shoe closer to the bottom of the rotating device. The camber of the foot allows you to polish the sides and heel.

A shoe tampon commonly has a red tampon and a black tampon. The red tampon is normally worn with lighter colored shoes, and the black tampon with darker shoes. This prevents the residual black polish in the buffer from transferring to a lighter shoe. The actual color of the buffer itself is purely cosmetic. In most cases, it will come with two sets of tampons.

Tampons can be washed and dried for repeated use. When the shocks start to tie up, it’s time to buy a new set. Lambswool will resist matting, while synthetic materials are more prone to wear and tear.

Although there are many manufacturers, models, and a wide range of quality, most electric shoe shocks can be divided into two types: They may have a handle extension topped with a power button or foot switch. The type that uses a handle extension, some models require the button to remain depressed to keep the buffers spinning.

The motor of a shoe damper is arguably the most important feature. Weak engines will bog down when pressure is put against the shocks. The quality of the engine will largely determine the price, which can range from US$49 to $150 or more. A high-quality tampon will also come with 100% lambswool tampons, rather than synthetic tampons.

A shoe tampon is small enough to take on business trips, and it may be convenient to keep one at the office and one at home. For additional shine, apply a small amount of polish to the shoe before polishing.
