so by now you've seen many different methods to painting boost material on Adidas shoes but which is the best methods and I will show you guys a couple of different ones in this video and which one for me worked the best [Music] what is going on guys has here Collective kicks comm monitor bring you guys this video by here guys is requests to shout out to you guys that left the comments that wanted to see this video a follow-up to the painting of the Boost material on the 93 17s that was primarily the main one
you guys wanted to see a follow up on but I've gotten lots of requests through the years about this pair as well my triple black ultra boost 1-0 and I've actually posted pictures of me rocking these a lot on social media so if you don't follow me on instagram go check out my account at hess kicks and you can see I'm kind of just random stuff that I end up posting over there but basically this actually held up really really well also but since then I've done a couple different methods and the one that did
not work very well you could see here and it was just a really really choppy job and you could see that it definitely did a ton of where on the back of the shoe so I wanted to give you guys some pointers to basically make it so this does not end up happening on your shoes I do also have one pair out here this is actually the painted boost from adidas and so this is the way that this one comes and I haven't heard anybody have any issues from the adidas release pairs if you guys
have had any cracking on the adidas pairs I'll leave a comment and let other people know I'm just curious to see for those that have worn their black ultra boost or black nmds or whatever it is from adidas if you've had any cracking or not this one has not had any right there but I've also done another pair over here and I did this one with the sharpie marker so I did this one a little bit different I did it with an oil-based marker and it actually worked out okay on this one there was a
little bit of wear spots I don't know if you can see him but this one's really really easy to touch-up all you have to do is break out that pen and then rub it over top of that area and then you're good to go is it the best method it's the quickest method and one that's easy to touch up but it's probably not the best method so far the one that I've had the most success on was the 93 17s and I did a detailed video on how I applied all of the different layers of
stuff to these ones if you guys want to go check out that video go check the description and you can go see how I apply to everything and just watch me actually do all of the steps that I'm going to tell you guys in this video there's basically just five steps that you need to follow and so there's a couple different products that you'll need to be able to make this actually happen but it makes it adhere to the boost really well there's no rub or anything like that on the bottom of this and it's
I've actually wore these more than any of the other triple black shoes that I have out here combined and it really has minimal signs of wear considering there's a little bit of wear spots here that I've noticed now and even like right down here I thought it right here was going to be super super bad but I haven't seen anywhere right here it's really really easy to get like this part right here worn down on the bottom of this boost because this section back here actually touches the ground sometimes if you step but the fact
that that didn't wear thin on this one was really quite impressive and you could see all the way up through here none of this war threw around the side there's a couple tricks that I wanted to show you guys and some really critical points that I wanted to make about applying this to the boost shoes because it's gonna basically make the difference of whether or not this sticks to your boost or not so let's go ahead and get into it I'll show you guys some of the products out here in just a second also this
one I'm actually touched this one up a couple times that's why it still looks really really new let's go ahead and get into it and I'll show you guys what you guys need again go watch this video if you want to see the detailed review of what you need but basically the first things first you start off with some soap I use rejuvenator you guys can use soap and water and a toothbrush whatever you guys want but if you guys do want to use some sneaker cleaners specific for shoes you can use something like this
and you can shop it rejuvenator and use code hess kicks for your order and save 10% off your order if you guys want to do that you definitely want to clean the boots and if it's a new shoe you don't have to clean it but you will have to do this next part which is the most important part so there's a couple different things you can use and I will link these again in the description if you guys need to go shop an Angeles and get all of your other supplies there but this is the
leather prepare Andy Glazer this is pretty much critical this is basically acetone for your shoes or you can use a non acetone nail polish remover this is the one I used on the 93 17s and then this is the one that I used on the ultra boost so this is definitely the critical first step you have to use the D glazier and this basically removes kind of that final finish on the boost material and then it will allow you to actually go in and apply the next two steps and allow it to stick a little
bit better so I would say that this is the most critical part to applying anything to the boost for coloring because if you don't do this step this is what you end up getting this pair right here is one that I did not apply any deglaze or two and all I just painted it and this is kind of what it ends up like just really really terrible so definitely don't want to do that definitely want to use this highly recommend it's only like six bucks or something like that or just get acetone or nail polish
remover so that's the first step after cleaning so the next steps you can do one of two things first you can apply the jet black leather dye as you can see right here and then you can apply the flat black acrylic leather paint I've heard that some people actually mix these two together and apply it in one I definitely prefer to do it in two phases I'll go heavy on the black leather dye and then I do a couple layers of the acrylic leather paint especially in the high-traffic areas of the shoe you want to
make sure there's at least two layers on that so the next step is to apply the matte acrylic finisher and this basically is just a light little gloss over the shoe and then you let it seal and then the paint will not rub off of the shoe definitely an important part some people also mention that they mix the matte finisher with the flat black leather paint and basically just applied these two at the same time you could probably do that as well but I definitely wanted to do it in this order so it's one two
three four then once that's all dry then you can use the final step originally I was recommended to use this mink oil which is a waterproofing and kind of conditioner for the shoes but it doesn't work if you don't do this first step as I've seen also you could use something like this which is what I've done on this pair specifically I use the water and stain repellent so that is the finisher and then you let it your shoe dry for 24 hours before you wear it especially in wet conditions and then it ends up
sticking pretty well and I again I've worn these for probably two weeks or two and a half weeks straight and I've worn them like basically a ton so the fact that I've warned him so much and I have not reapplied anything to the is pretty cool the fact that I actually ended up sticking and you know I ended up reaching out on Twitter and asking people some advice and what ended up working for people in the long run a lot of people didn't really know that this was one of the methods that actually ends up
working the best so it's one that was mentioned a long time ago and I've done a lot of videos on these myself but unfortunately I only did this part on I didn't show you guys the leather prepare and some of the videos and because of that the results were just really really not very good so it's kind of a learning opportunity for myself and and you guys out there as well because we didn't have boost technology years and years ago that's why this was one of the first shoes that I had out there online that
basically was painted because originally I was like I don't want an all-white like midsole with a black upper I wanted a triple black look and cents an Adidas made in answer and then releasing shoes that are black out or different colored boost but the boost is actually still painted on the adidas versions as well as you can see the bottom still have the boost so it's not like they're using some sort of dye in the boost to be able to paint it they're actually painting it after the fact and I don't know how adidas does
it if somebody has inside that'd be cool the other thing I wanted to mention is this is really really important when you have a pair of boots that are just super beat-up this is a really good way to bring your boost back to life because sometimes the boost gets really really yellow and this is one way where you can actually just turn the shoe and make it look brand new again and I've seen a lot of people that have tagged me on Instagram and Twitter and shown me that they've done that they took an old
beater pair and they revived it so this is one way that you can do that if you buy these essentials right here to paint it out there's definitely a lot of dye and paints that you get in these so you can paint dozens and dozens of shoes but this is the best way that I found to actually accomplish painting your boost so leave some comments let me know what you guys think I think this was a pretty successful test in my opinion especially on this pair right here and I'm happy with the results and I'm
happy to share the results with you guys so hopefully you guys liked the video and if you do hit the thumbs up button porfavor and you subscribe if you guys new to channel hit the notification bell if you want to be notified when I post videos and you can join the notification squad hopefully again you guys found this informative and hopefully you guys enjoyed the video and looking forward to bringing you guys some more content soon thank you again for watching peace guys
