I'm sure there will be varying opinions on this, but I'll ask anyway. I don't polish my shoes very often (maybe once/month), but that's partly due to the fact that I typically rotate between two 5+ year old Johnston & Murphy's that were no more than $150-200 (still look great, BTW). I'm considering an upgrade to a pair of Alden wingtips or cap toes, so plan to step up my care once I get them.
I've been using Saphir Renovator along with Saphir wax polish for my existing JM's. I recently bought some Saphir cream polish and Reno Mat to remove polish build up. My question is this: Once I begin polishing more frequently, how often should I use the Reno Mat and/or cream? I have zero experience with either, and I don't want to over do it or damage shoes.
I realize there are varying opinions on using cream vs wax vs Renovator by itself. So any response to my inquiry should assume I'm going to finish my polishes off with a wax.
