Not sure. The stuff I bought came in a blue squeeze bottle. I think it was made for outdoor canvas and the like. I just would not use it on my shoes. I am sure it great on a BBQ cover.

Yep, that's the one. And frankly, waxy-feeling or no. I would think very few people would ask to feel the shoe just wearing it around, so what does it really matter? Especially on a wear pair. I don't particularly go around touching my shoes all day, so it doesn't matter to me.
The stuff will repel pretty much any water-based substance. Including ketchup and chocolate syrup. And doesn't alter the appearance of the shoe. That's a win to me.

Yeah I could get some and test it on some other materials I guess to see. At the price it's worth a try and see as opposed to payin silly prices to get something from outside the uk

It's the same message I got. But I keep asking if I can talk to David and I don't get his info from my contact "Joyce". When do you expect to receive your defect pair? Also who did you make the western union payment out to.
Thank you

When I bought my 2 pairs of V3s, all communication was via that email. Yet not once with David. The names of the people were Rebecca and Martha.

And you've nailed it hard.
Truth is, we have asked for the closest possible replica to the real shoe as possible and we now have that. It seems the "be careful what you wish for" actually came true for us.
Apart from replacing the yellowing soles (or dying them, because it is easier) and dimming the overly bright LEDs (which don't bother me that much), what is there to mod on these anyway?
My wear pair may have died, but the display pair is fine and in time, I will get my US7 pair for a 1:1 display replica of the film shoe. I will then (carefully) wear the 2nd pair of US10s I have.
Wizard has made replacement soles. I have made new masters but have not molded or cast those yet because I am not 100% happy with them. So they will need to be re-done.
My lights don't work on my wear pair and and will never work again as I it seems I have broken wires inside the shoe as well having faulty batteries (which I have since removed and disposed of). The sellers on eBay that you provided links to, won't ship to Australia and the local batteries I can source here are 600mha, not 1000mha and no protection circuit. I have no intention of tearing this pair down because because if I do, chances are, I won't be able to replace the broken wire anyway and then I won't have a pair I can wear, so nothing to gain.
Water resisting, adding insoles (and maybe arches like I did this morning) is really all the average fan of these shoes can do anyway.
And your right, there have been a heap of newbies that came here just to get a cheaper pair of V3 MAGs. They signed up, bought their shoes and contributed absolutely nothing.
Well look what just popped up on Instagram!! I sure these are still in development and months away from shipping but they look good:

Power laces, alright! 
Looks like my V3 display pair are now going to become my wear pair
So so far one site has them at $1500
Does the power lace version have anything to do with David or did someone else just take over?
well Gogoyeezy has them on order on their site for $1500...
So who wants to break the ice?
Will they come in the normal yellow box or the white one?
