SHOE POLISH
This range of dyes can be used to colour wax and solvent based polishes. They can be blended together to create a variety of different shades. Typical application levels would be 0.5 - 1.0%.
A typical shoe polish formulation would comprise of 10% synthetic wax ester, 15% paraffin wax, 74% white spirit and 1% colour.
These main components are used to generate hardness, texture, ease of application and gloss characteristics during buffing.
Additional covering power can be gained with the use of carbon black. This helps to produce a harder wax/paste.
Dyestuffs can be pre-dissolved in oleic acid to form the oleate salt of dyestuff. This can make the dissolution of the dye within the solvent system easier.
Dyestuffs available for this application include:
| Bestoil Orange Y | (Solvent Orange 3) | Tan polish |
| Bestoil Red BT | (Solvent Red 24) | Red polish/shading |
| Bestoil Black HB | (Solvent Black 3) | Black polish |
| Bestoil Black OB | (Solvent Black 7) | Black polish |
| Bestoil Yellow 3GP | (Solvent Yellow 16) | Bright Yellow polish/Shading |
| Bestoil Yellow DE | (Solvent Yellow 56) | Neutral Yellow polish/Shading |
| Bestoil Brown B | (Solvent Red 3) | Brown polish/shading |
| Bestoil Blue 2N | (Solvent Blue 35) | Blue polish/shading |
These wax-soluble dyes can be dissolved in the molten wax for wax shoe polish.
