I used to do painting work like this for 30 hours a week,

You need to mix 50% red with 50% fire red, using Angelus acrylic leather paint.

Sand it down real smooth and apply thin layers.use a clear wax to give it the perfect shine.

Or use Chic red soles (if you can get them) they are the only ones that match the Lounoutin red.

 

I would do this so that the top end stores could put returned shoes back on the shelves and sell them as new.

I charged about £35 to paint soles.

Now most of the s**t shoes I get in don't even cost £35.
