    A must for everyone going to Sandhurst and RAF Cranwell.
    Well the Rodneys might be able to afford £4.49 for a Boot Cleaning cloth for their batmen to use. Meanwhile back in the real world the squadies and the erks will continue to use a yellow duster. And I bet the batman used a yellow duster as well!

    Regards

    Nownow Chas. I'm not having a pop! Everyone knows Rodneys can't bull for toffee. As a former err... Army drill instructor with a boot reputation to uphold I can only let the fine members of this forum know what makes for a good set of glass dancin' slippers. I found that yellow dusters left bits of yellow duster all over your boot where-as Sylvia's wonderful polishin' cloth left only... well... shine. I was introduced to them at the Guards Depot when a Grenadier showed me how to bull my boots properly and these cloths last forever, I still have 3 from a previous life. When shiney shoes is your business you won't find a better bulling rag and it really is worth the extra. Honest. Everybody in the Army uses them. I heard once the RAF use Tornado nose cone paint (at £100 a tin). Any truth in that?
