Dry Wax Fabric Dressing

For virgin fabric, this 8 oz tin of heat activated dry wax dressing is brushed on as a base layer. It transforms fabric into a highly durable waxed canvas for years of weatherproof protection. For more application instructions and a little more about the heritage of this storied process, check out this article on Instructables.

Notes:

  • Reproof or apply durable waterproofing – Heat activated fabric wax is easily brushed onto your canvas denim or blended work gear. It soaks into the fibers for years of rugged protection.
  • Dry Dressing is formulated to take abuse – Your garment will last for generations. It’s tried and tested in the harshest of environments, from the country estate to forestry work.
  • Non-toxic – There are toxic chemicals used to process and render commercial off-the-shelf oil and wax products. We forego unnecessary processing with careful temperature and agitation control. We put in the time to make this product right and safe to wear. As always, we are PFAS-free.

  1. Winning 😉

  2. Barbour is overrated. They are just a brand these days, it’s really obvious when their thornproof dressing feels like grease and waterproofs about as well. Hawk Tools is killin’ it.

  3. The application takes a little while but you get used to it. The end result is well worth the wait and it lasts for years. Impressed is an understatement.

  4. Good job Hawk Tools team! Keep it up.

  5. The best waterproofing wax available.
