cobblers.keys Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 (edited) Does anyone sell cherry blossom renovating polish? They do 9 colours apparently but it a good quality renovation? I am looking for a replacement for the dasco. Tried the CB range but the twist openers sometimes snap off.

Flash Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 Big fault with the twist openers on C/B range of polishes, most will not stand opening more than three times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobblers.keys Posted February 4, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 Correct Flash. That is why I need to find a decent alternative. Looking at the cherry blossom tins they look good but I want to know how good the product is before I can sell to my customers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found Cherry Blossom dried out in the tin very quickly whilst on the shelf. Customers would rattle it then put it down. I'm stocking the Saphir wax as an alternative to Kiwi and will push TRG creams more now. cobblers.keys 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike at Vauxhall Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 2 things I don't like about cherry blossom, The tins are very smart, but now got even more red on it. The name is cherry blossom, I have customers just assuming it's red. Just had one now. I'd just told him it was black. Put it through he till, and he goes "but I wanted black not red. " I put the price over the name cherry blossom. It's now going to be available in most of the supermarkets, can make price comparison an issue.

keithm Posted February 7, 2023 Report Share Posted February 7, 2023 Can your customers not read? Assuming of course that it says 'Black' on the tin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auto Key Wizard Posted February 7, 2023 Report Share Posted February 7, 2023 The population seem to becoming more brain dead by the day. Gone are the days of the normal thinker. Mostly those who still wear face masks and freely offer their arm inline for the next virus or influenza injection. kobblers and k4mrc 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a couple of oxblood cherry blossom, dried out. I put the tin in a frying pan on the hob. Heated it until the polish melted. Then let it cool down. Worked quite well, kitchen smelled like I had been running a meth lab though. I did it when my wife was out. Opened all the windows and just preyed the smell would go away before she came back. x minit uk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobblers.keys Posted February 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2023 If the polish rattles just take lid off and put under the heat lamp for a few seconds so it sticks to the tin again. kobblers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does work, but should we have to go to all this effort just to sel la tin of polish? surely there must be way to stop the polish drying up in the tin in the first instance. Better polish? better sealed tin? kobblers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
