Bee Kind Beeswax Waterproof Bar

Bee Kind beeswax heavy duty water repellent and protectant wax is made from the highest quality beeswax and blend of waxes. A great option for heavy duty waterproofing projects likehorse rugs,  outdoor equipment, tent seams, jackets or pants, bike wear, back packs, hats, trekking boots, jeans, canvas shoes, fishing & hunting gear, rucksacks, tents and hiking boots. Any surface that requires a heavy duty water-proofing surface. Easy to use. Can be used in hard to reach seams and stitching. 

Application:
Rubbing the bar back and forth creates the perfect amount of heat to loosen wax and spread evenly into the top layer of surface. Use a cloth to hold the bar and then use cloth after, to rub in wax. 
•  Thoroughly clean and dry item before application
•  Rub onto surface to create heat friction
•  Smooth out with fingers or cloth to create uniform seal
•  Can be rubbed in using a cloth if used on boots etc.
• A hair dryer or iron can be used to melt wax into fabric or garments, or left by fireplace, or in sun. Leave overnight to dry.

It’s recommended that you re-apply wax every year. Waxing fabric, will darken the color of a fabric and give it a light shine. As a general rule of thumb, plan on using more wax to treat un-waxed or oiled fabrics. Waxed fabrics are already saturated with wax, so will not absorb as much as an untreated fabric. Bee Kind wax bars are excellent for one-sided waxing because it creates a seal on the top layer of the fabric. Great for quickly re-proofing factory waxed and oiled garments like oilskins. The wax  is melted down when applied, thus permeating deeper into the fabric and yielding a more factory-waxed appearance. This is ideal for multi-layered coats and jackets, or for re-proofing factory-oiled fabrics.

Photo below - Waterproofing a 4.9ft synthetic horse rug - Using a muslin cloth to hold bar and then using the corners and edges of bar to get into the hard to reach seams and stitching - Saves the stitching from breaking down and rotting after heavy rain, dryness and sun. Waterproofing bar was then used for the rest of rug. Right hand side photo shows where waterproofing bar was applied and then water applied to the surface. Completely rainproof and will last for up to a year before re-applying.
