Thanks Mike!You nice with it Peabrain!!! Well done sir!!
Thx JumpmanSo clean man, how much would something like the 6s run for? Definitely looking to do business in the future.
I take my hat off to you Sir!
Dope as usual
Thx Angellooks great, props.
For the mesh on the sides of the tongue I just scrubbed out any stains with soap and waterVery nice!!!
What did you use on the mesh sides of the tongue¿ I have a pair of OG white/red 12s that need a little love. The sole is coming off a bit on one shoe as well. How much do you apply to the soles¿ Just along the edge, or do you do the whole thing¿
looks great, props.

And if the sole is coming off only a bit then just use the glue where its needed, if you're using a good glue then you wont need much, just make sure you hold the 2 parts together for a couple minutes while the glue is doing its job bonding
I just hold the 2 parts I'm gluing together with some added pressure for a couple of minutesOk thanks. Do you tie the sole to the shoe with laces or rubber bands or anything??
I just got some e-6000 last night, so I'll be ready to work after I get off of work.

And e-6000 should definitely do the trick
If its just a small part of the sole thats coming off, then all you need is strong glue and a couple minutes of pressure, or at least thats what I've always been doingReally?? I kept reading that you have to keep it bonded for 12+ hours. If a few minutes is all it takes, then I'm cool with that.

and it seems work pretty well for me
If the entire sole is off, or coming off the shoe, then I would probably use some elastics or a clamp to hold the 2 parts together with pressure for a couple hours
Hope this helps
No Problem, Glad I could helpIt really does. I have a few shoes that have minor separation(old shoes), so I would like to take care of it before the whole thing comes off. Thank you for allowing me to bug you.
One more question- would you recommend that same process for midsole separation?

I actually haven't dealt with any midsole seperation problems as of yet, so I dont know too much
I do know that you might want to use something stronger than E-6000, maybe possibly some Barge Cement
Restoremykicks has a nice little page with some great info and videos
Heres the link http://www.restoremysneakers.com/restoration-projects/sole-separation
Lol its not that bad of an idea eitherThat's funny, because that's where I got the idea about tying the sole to the shoe from.
DagPreview of an upcoming project
I have quite a bit of work ahead of me
Hi Peabrain, it`s me again so i`ve bought Scarlet red and White, now the guy who sold me these told me something about : "To promote a higher gloss finish on some leathers, first apply Angelus Clear Acrylic Finisher, let dry, then apply paint." do i need to buy that also? 10x man!Thanks for the kind words Flo!
The link you posted doesnt seem to work
but I think I know what you're getting at
Turtle Feathers doesnt have a "Cherry Red" factory colour sort of speak (or at least I dont think so)
So you have to do some mixing, to get the Cherry Red colour I mixed
A little bit of Scarlett Red and White, I used Scarlett Red because It was the only red paint I had at the time
(I`m sure you could use a different shade of red if you dont have Scarlett Red)
and I mixed white paint with it so I could get closer to the Cherry colour
PM me if you need anymore help
Id be glad to answer anymore questions you have
