In the autumn period we often encounter precipitation, so everyone needs quality footwear.
If your feet get wet, it not only creates significant discomfort, but also increases the risk of catching a cold.
However, not everyone has good shoes that can handle the task.
In this case, you need to resort to trickery.
How to make any pair of shoes waterproof?
Paraffin with linseed oil
Paraffin is often recommended because it creates a wonderful protective layer. Three parts of paraffin are mixed with one part of linseed oil and the upper part of the shoe is treated.
Fish oil with turpentine and wax
This method is also used to treat the upper part of shoes. Forty parts of fish oil are taken with ten parts of wax and three parts of turpentine.
For the sole
This recipe is a bit more complicated, as it consists of many components. However, the result will be that your sole will not let moisture through.
You will need to combine 50 ml of linseed oil, 40 ml of castor oil and 40 grams of paraffin, stir. Then add about 10 grams of stearin, the same amount of rosin and about 20 ml of gasoline.
