How to use Pointe Shoe Shellac:
- Shake before use.
- Make sure there is nothing inside your pointe shoes (no toe pads, drawstrings, lambswool etc.)
- Apply Pointe Shoe Shellac evenly INSIDE the TOE BOX and to the TIP of the shoe. Never use the product on the outside of the shoe as it will stain the satin. NOTE: If there is a sponge toe pad, it is not recommended to shellac the sponge or it will harden.
- Apply Pointe Shoe Shellac to the SHANK on the inside or outside of the shoe only if you need more support for your arch or ball of foot.
- If harder shoes are desired, after the first application, let the shellac dry, and then apply a 2nd coat of shellac. Repeat if necessary, 1 coat for less hardness and up to 3 coats for very hard.
- Check that the inside of the shoe is completely dry before wearing it.
- Happy Dancing!
