It looks like this:

just point the can to what you want to protect and spray. Its just like using water proofer

Thanks. You sprayed the whole midsole?

yeah I just sprayed the entire shoe. midsole first, then the leather. it dries in minutes.
Solecity, its a clear coat. I swear by this stuff. I saved me from ruining my South Beaches and made the repaint job on my Aquas hold MUCH better than the factory paint.

White cements are def better, this is crazy. You have to buy the shoes for 160 and tax, then a mr clean eraser to get the baby oil off, and now a can of bottle of paint?

Read some of the replies on here about cracking so I had to check my worn pair, 4 wears and no cracking. Hope I get a few dozen more wears before the cracking starts.

Sounds like paint chipping is just inevitable. Kinda wish they'd just go back to dyed midsoles, even if they do eventually yellow.

Wow, looking at all these pics of the black/cements cracking is just ridiculous. I've worn my WC3s and TB3s around 15 times each. No signs of cracking at all. Makes me hesitant to bust out the BC3s.
