shoe polish

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'kiwi to drive way in pickup' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'reach european?' is the wordplay.
'reach' becomes 'shoe' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'european?' becomes 'Polish ' (Poland is in Europe).
'shoe'+'polish'='SHOE POLISH'

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
