Making a Toe Cap
To help your boots live longer, protect them with an ultra-tough toe cap made of Aquasure SR Shoe Repair Adhesive.
Step 1:
Start with a clean, dry boot. Stuff newspaper tightly inside the boot toe area. Apply tape tightly across toe to create straight edge. Lightly sand the toe area with sandpaper, then buff aggressively with a rag dipped in rubbing alcohol. Allow to dry and buff a second time with rubbing alcohol.
Step 2:
Paint the surface with Aquasure SR. Be sure to cover all areas between the sole and the tape. It will self level and become smooth.
Step 3:
Wait 45 minutes, then peel off tape. Do not leave tape on longer. Allow your new toe cap to cure completely overnight.
