ABSTRACT:
An item of footwear which has become scuffed or worn, or which is to be protected against wear, on its leather or leather-like external surfaces, is subjected to a preliminary cleaning. Thereafter, a coating of polyurethane elastomer dispersed in water, and possibly extended by acrylic resin dispersed in water, further including a colorant, a defoamer and a wetting agent, is brushed or swabbed onto the surface. The water evaporates, leaving a thin, flexible, scuff-resistant coating, the color of which covers and hides discoloration and scuffs on the original surface.
