[ENG-ESP] Recovering some beautiful boots/ Recuperando unos hermosos botines
Hello happy day beautiful community, organizing my things I got a pair of boots that I kept for special occasions, I kept them so much that when I went to use them they started to peel or fall off the synthetic fabric that covers them. However the sole was intact, that's why I had given up throwing them away.
Hola feliz día hermosa comunidad, organizando mis cosas me conseguí un par de botines que guardaba para ocasiones especiales, tanto los guarde que cuando lo fui a utilizar se comenzaron a pelar o caer la tela sintética que los cubre. Sin embargo la suela estaba intacta, por eso había desistido de botarlos.
Checking the internet I found a wonderful way to recover them. I used a coarse sandpaper or scissors, cold paint in the colour of your choice, in this case I chose black.
Chequeando internet me conseguí con una forma maravillosa de recuperarlos. Para ello use una lija, gruesa o tijera, pintura al frío del color que desees, en este caso escogí el color negro.
I began with the help of the scissors and the sandpaper to remove that layer of fabric I could say that it is leather, this took me some time, everything must be removed very carefully.
Inicié con ayuda de la tijera y la lija a quitar esa capa de tela podría decir que es cuerina, esto me tomo algo de tiempo, se debe retirar todo con mucho cuidado.
At the end I cleaned a bit removing the residues, then with the help of fabric and paint I stitched the whole shoe until it was completely covered. I did this process 3 times and with a brush I gave the last touches where I couldn't reach with the fabric, and that's it, I recovered my wonderful shoes, this time I will use them more often hehe. If you have a shoe made of this kind of material, I encourage you to give it a second chance. The photos are my own and I made the translation with the help of deelp.com.
Al finalizar quedaron como en un todo gris, limpié un poco quitando los reciduos, luego con ayuda de tela y pintura le fui dando puntadas en todo el zapato hasta cubrirlo completamente. Este proceso lo realice 3 veces y con un pincel le di los últimos toques a dónde no pude llegar con la tela, y pues listo así recupere mis maravillos zapatos, está ves los usaré más seguido jeje. Si tienes un calzado de este tipo de material animate a darle una segunda oportunidad. Las fotos son de mi autoría y realice la traducción con ayuda de deelp.com
It's nice that you could repair the boots and use it as life is not cheap these days, no matter where you live.
I'd like to suggest Hive DIY community for this type of post next time as OCD is for topics that don't fit in any other community.
Here's a guide I put together to help you learn about how communities work -> Communities Explained - Newbie Guide.
Once you posted your post in the right community, you can then cross post it to OCD community. Here's a guide about cross posting.
Please don't delete any post with the purpose of reposting it in another community as that can be considered abuse! Leave this post here, you'll get it right next time.
Happy blogging.
Hello happy day, thank you very much for the information I did not know about this option, it worked for me to make my publication more visible.
You're welcome.
Hola! cuanto tiempo dejaste secar entre cada pintada??
Hola feliz día, la pintura al frío seca muy rápido, aproximadamente esperé 2 o 3 minutos por cada capa
gracias 😉
