Worst experience with this company

Package came destroyed and paint was everywhere. The are taking a long time to send my item. They wint even respond with my tracking number. Im just left in the clouds. Bad customer service I will never buy from this company ever again

It looks like you reached out to us with your issue and my team promptly resent the item. The email was also sent with the tracking information a few times. Possibly your email address is incorrect? Please let us know.

Easy to use

It works great, but it's not made for rubber soles. I used it to change the color on my sneakers, and it wore right off. You can't tell unless you turn them over, so it's all good

Great :)

Great!, it takes a lot less paint then I originally thought I’d need. I bought two small tubs but just the amount on the lid was enough for half my shoes sole. Sticks really well and goes on smooth so happy with it

perfect for orthodontic shoes

Im disabled and needed to refresh the appearance of worn out orthodontic shoes. This black paint made my shoes look new and even more expensive. I now have the confidence to wear my ortho shoes without feeling embarrassed by them looking worn out. Thank you for a wonderful product that exceeded my expectations! My physical therapist was even impressed by the quality of the paint!

Amazing to hear. Glad this worked out for you!

Best stuff on the market

Covers very easily and withstands a lot of punishment. Like the title says it’s the best stuff on the market.

Thank you for your review, Derek, what's the point of making a solidproduct if you can't punish it once in a while haha!

Not what its cut out to be.

I got this because it's a very popular product for soles. I used this on my Giuseppe heels and it came out terrible. The paint was streaking (retained brush strokes.) I personally find the paint to be too thick to work with and not opaque enough. I had to apply 5-6 coats to get full coverage and by that time, the paint strokes were just evident. Not a pretty sight at all. Not to mention, they sent me jar that was opened already. It didn't have a seal and it partly used. Not sure if that was what contributed to the consistency of the paint. Either way, I'm not too happy with this product.

Hey Yan Yee Fung,Our customer service rep emailed you back regarding this issue, please check you email :)Thank you for your feedback and have a wonderful day.
