I just received my first waxed canvas shooting bag. What do I need to do to take care of it? Do I need to reapply the coating at some point? If so what do I use and how do I reapply it?
Thank you sir. Appreciate the information and help. Having never owned anything waxed canvas before I want to take care of it but was not sure how.You don't have to do anything (maybe wipe it down with a damp towel), but if you want it to stay somewhat tacky use Otterwax. Take a hairdryer and heat the bag, rub wax on it, and then hit it with the hairdryer again to help it absorb into the fabric.
Fjallraven and Filson also make refinishing wax. It looks like all of the brands use the same two ingredients (paraffin and bees wax), so whatever is easy to get or on sale.
That should improve the B.C., shouldn't it?I have a shaved bag.
Very smooth.
