My opinion is that, if you can't touch it with your bare hands, you shouldn't be putting it on your clothes. The product goes on smooth with a handkerchief and buffs to a shine. I use it on my work boots that I stomp through snow, mud, rocks, and scuff on concrete. I've found my boots need good cleaning about once a week. They look great and they are protected from the environment extremely well with this protectant wax.
