Wow Laura, I never thought of shoe polish, but then everytime you dust them or rub on them won't the polish come off? I have only repainted one set of irons and it was for my Wilcox and Gibbs cabinet that someone had painted black and the irons gold! DH sand blasted the irons and we painted them black like they were originally! Liquid Gold works really well to shine up those black irons too! Here are the before and after photos - we re-did the coffin top also, but not in the shot!

shoe polish doesn't come off- you have to put it on with a brush and then buff it with a brush, just like you do for shoes. The W and G looks lovely! Laura
