The most durable fabric waterproofer
Clean Matte
No discolored creases and grease marks. A consistent matte sheen will radiate warm light for a more refined waxed canvas look.
Rub-on
A bar, hair dryer and elbow grease is all that’s needed to transform your fabric.
Dry feel
Dry wax wont rub-off like wet wax. It adds a tooth and rugged leathery toughness to textiles.
Paraffin
A paraffin base creates an ultra durable barrier to water for your fabrics.
Pine Pitch
Used by native peoples for millennia to waterproof bark canoes, shelters and clothing.
Ceria Oxide
Environmentally friendly alternative to Zinc Oxide for blocking UV light.
Methyl PAraben
Non-Toxic and food grade, Methyl paraben stops mold, smell, and mildew.
Tylol
Better than aerosols, this binder for natural and synthetic fibers that is pfas free and bio-degradable.
Rub-On Bar
- Remove the bar from Packaging.
- Rub on in even strokes and use a hair dryer to help melt the bar and saturate the fabric.
- Enjoy the Fabric Weatherproofing experience.

My handbag does not stain anymore.

Overall, the weatherproofing bar works as described. Just make sure to rub on a heavy layer if you plan on taking your outerwear to sea. If you follow the instructions, your jacket will stay dry.
