Do you own any waxed cotton garments or accessories? Re-waxing can ensure it lasts a lifetime of adventures.
This wax tin is produced by Fernwh's main waxed canvas supplier, Halley Stevensons in Dundee. They are one of the industry leaders when it comes to waxed canvas production as they've been specialising in waxed cotton since 1864.
Waxed Canvas is an incredible fabric. One of its brilliant qualities is its water resistance, which is down to the wax coating that is embedded into the fibres during manufacture. This wax coating, is what over time and use creates the unique marks and creases that waxed cotton is famed for. These markings are a beautiful and unique inherent characteristic of the cloth.
Although waxed canvas has this incredible properties, over time and use, this wax coating will fade, which is where re-waxing comes in. Re-waxing your bag is simple and restores the fabric to its water resistant condition.
PRODUCT FEATURES:
- 50ml wax tin
- Developed and produced by Halley Stevensons and has a petroleum jelly (soft paraffin) base
Re-Wax Instructions
How often you re-wax your bag depends on how often it is used. For regular use, it is recommended re-waxing once per year.
