Will shoe paint crack or peel off over time?

Shoe paint from Shoemedic is specially formulated to be flexible and long-lasting. If you follow the application instructions carefully, the paint will stay vibrant and resist cracking or peeling, even with regular wear. For best results, make sure to clean the shoes thoroughly before painting and allow enough drying time between layers.

Can I use your products to customize both leather and canvas shoes?

Absolutely! Our paints and products work great on both leather and canvas shoes. Just be sure to check the product description for any surface-specific tips, and always prep your shoes properly by cleaning and, if needed, lightly sanding the area. This will help the paint adhere perfectly and ensure your design lasts.

How should I care for my shoes after using Shoemedic products to make my design last?

Once you've finished customizing your shoes, let the paint cure for at least 24 hours. After that, you can gently wipe them with a damp cloth to keep them clean. Avoid soaking your shoes or using harsh chemicals. If you want extra protection, consider applying a water-repellent spray safe for painted surfaces.
