There is not much you can do about it. When its cracked all you can do is blend it in, so thats what the dye is for..

Got these small white factory "scuffs" on a pair of DS Royals (toebox area along the stitching), what type of Angelus paint can I use to touch them up?

Clean it with water and soap. If they don't come off leave it alone. No reason to put paint on a pair of DS.

Yeah, they won't come off with that & I don't want to leave it alone, they bug me

Anyone know how to decrease patent leather? Found some dope 19 SEs and have a couple space jams that need decreasing at the toe box.
I steamed out the ankle creases on the Space Jams but it left some serious mist on the patent leather around the heel and once it tried off, the shine was gone for good. Left sort of a misty imprint on the patent leather.

You could use a sharpie and no one would even know it. I wouldn't go out of my way to buy $3+shipping worth of paint for that.
I would try 100% acetone.

Don't think there's an effective and safe way to decrease patent leather creasing, but to fix the shine on patent leather...
Acrylic finisher method:
Lotion method:
Yes, those can definitely be fixed.

Don't think those 5's have any mesh. Are you thinking of the netting or maybe the neoprene tongue?
To clean the netting, just use salon care.

Whats everyones take on storing in plastic containers? I just recently switched over, i keep my kicks stored in the containers, in my dark closet, which is pretty cool in there since my house has central AC.
Ive heard some people say i should probably poke some holes in the containers to let them breathe, but then again..... i recently sold a pair of DS 2000 spacejams which i had in a ziploc bag with a silica pack in the OG box for 7yrs, and it still looked brand new, so idk.
im mainly worried about some of the jordans the are mostly white
thoughts?

Keep most of my shoes in the plastic drop front boxes & those have some little "holes" in them already. My bedroom is pretty dark & only source of light is a ceiling fan so I don't need to keep mine in the closet. Threw a couple of silica packets in each one as well.

I have a craft store that carries Angelus nearby so it's not biggie, but what kind would you recommend & I wouldn't need to do any pre-treatment since the scuffs are so small correct?

Could someone please tell me which color / product you use to repaint the sole or jumpman on the jordans 3? I use angelus leather paint for the leather and it works fine. But i don't know what to use for sole / jumpman. Any help is highly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
