Greenland Wax

I had some waxed canvas and had already made one canvas bag with it but doe some reason, even though the fabric looked perfectly fine when the time came to make the second one, for some reason over night it had started to look spotty as per ‘before’ image. I don’t know if it was due to the sunshine through the window of my craft room but I needed to try something to improve it as u guessed it was the wax drying out. I did some research online and this brand came up as recommended so I wanted to give it a go. I wanted wax treatment that was straightforward to apply and this certainly is. It says to use a soft brush to remove dirt and debris but as I was using new fabric, I omitted that step and went straight in to applying the wax. It looks like a bar of near transparent soap and I had expected to get through it quickly. I followed the instructions and applied by rubbing the bar evenly across the fabric (which was a bag at this point) and used my hairdryer to cure it. I loved how the wax seemed to disappear into thr fabric. It took a lot of layers but wow…there was a lovely difference…the colour and the texture of the fabric changed. You have to be very patient and keep applying until you get the result you want. The bag is now waterproof again and a richer colour. Sadly it doesn’t look glassy like the fabric did when purchased but I’m guessing a different method/wax wails have been used to get that effect. For a bag, I am very happy with the result and it would have taken just a couple of hours to get to this stage but I did it in intervals and even the next morning to top it up. There is no odour from it which is good. I have researched but cannot find another way to get the sheen…someone said to buff it up afterward but I’m not sure how to do that. However, absolutely really impressed and it barely used any of the bar of wax at all…still left with plenty. The price of this bar seemed a lot as I had imagined it wouldn’t go far but as I said, there is loads left after doing lots of layers in the bag which for me, makes it great value.

I purchased two G1000 bags and applied the wax which really isn’t that waxy at all. Heated with hair drier and it melts into the fabric. Easy to do and surprisingly clean job. If you have ever rewaxed a Barbour jacket, you will not what a sticky job that is.

It's wax, used it on my jacket, works. Tastes a bit funny.

Good water resistant. Very useful on combat trousers and jeans, makes them much better quality. Easy to use but hard work. Used it for my tench coat too. Very Good. Best used on cotton fabric. Goes quite a long way for a small bar. Magic! Wax. Very happy that you.

Great for weatherproofing fjallraven coats

Very easy to use. Not greasy like Barbour wax. Gives a good invisible waterproof coating. Good value.

I applied this wax to my black Greenland jacket. It is quite a therapeutic process but I had to apply 4 times in order to gain a satisfactory level of waterproofing and even then it's not great in a downpour. It also leaves white wax marks which despite me heating up and removing only go to reappear at a later date, usually after the coat has been exposed to another downpour. I own two Fjallraven coats with a Skogso being the second. To be honest I wouldn't waterproof again as it's too much of a faff and results are inconsistent. I think it would be better if Fjallraven offered a wax waterproofing service in the UK or sold jackets that are waterproof.

Easy to apply. Rub all over the items your going to waterproof and melt with hot hair dryer. Leather or fabric takes the wax easily. Will buy again

Das Wachs lässt sich mühelos auftragen und gleichmäßig in den Stoff einarbeiten. Bereits nach dem Einbügeln merkt man, wie Wasser deutlich besser abperlt und die Oberfläche widerstandsfähiger wird. Besonders bei Outdoor-Jacken zeigt sich der Effekt sofort: weniger Feuchtigkeit, weniger Schmutzaufnahme und spürbar mehr Schutz vor Wind. Die Dose hält lange, da man nur wenig Material benötigt. Für die regelmäßige Pflege von G-1000-Gewebe oder anderen Baumwollmischungen ist das eine sehr effektive und nachhaltige Lösung. Fazit: Ein hochwertiges Pflegeprodukt, das Stoffe zuverlässig imprägniert und ihre Lebensdauer verlängert. Für Outdoor-Bekleidung absolut empfehlenswert.

Aot of work but it make your Fkäll Raven clothing more durable and a little more water resistand. Do not expect your pants to get watertight.

Stuk goedkoper dan elders en werkt perfect. De jas is weer waterdicht zoals voordien.
