Make your gear water repellent by using natural beeswax.

Waxed cotton canvas is traditionally used for waterproofing. Our Fabric Wax contains natural beeswax and plant oils to provide multiple benefits: water-repellent, strengthens fabric, it's anti bacterial and anti fungal. Regular use also creates a weathered patina. Safe for the environment and can be used on jackets, trousers, hats, tents, bags, and luggage.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

  1. Empty the bag or garment to be treated.
  2. Dry and brush off to remove loose soil and dust. 
  3. Lay the item flat on a hard surface and rub the Sack Wax across the fabric fibres. The idea is to get an even covering across the surface.
  4. Ensure that wax is getting into vulnerable spaces like seams and joins. We don't recommend waxing the inside of the item. Rub the wax into the fibres using your hands - especially finger tips -or a tool such as a silicon spatula.
  5. Apply to the whole bag or garment at once, or in sections.
  6. Use a hairdryer or heat gun to melt the wax directly onto the surface. Evenly distribute softened wax across the entire item.
  7. Apply evenly then allow it to dry off. The item may be slightly tacky for a day or so. 
  8. If you don't want to see any wax when you are finished wait for the wax to harden after a few minutes and hit these areas again with the heat source. Sometimes you might want to wait 2-3 days and then re-heat and rub down the bag. 
  9. Natural beeswax will evaporate and biodegrade naturally especially in warmer climates. On average, you probably only need to re-wax once a year but you can re-treat as often as needed or desired.

Waxing canvas is a natural way or protecting the fabric and whoever is under it. The wax finish causes water to bead off instead of soaking into the fibres.
