Hoggs of Fife Professional Waxed Cotton Dressing - Neutral 100 ml

Hoggs Professional dressing for Waxed Cotton Clothing reproofs and renovates, by restoring the key elements which dry out over time. It will nourish the fabric with essential wax, freshening the appearance and preventing the garment drying out and cracking - enhancing water resistance.

Caring for Your Waxed Cotton

Generally speaking people seem to prefer their waxed cottons with a little wear and tear - rather like a comfortable pair of old jeans. But, your jacket will reward a little occasional maintenance with a longer life span - much as a pair of leather shoes benefits from an occasional polish. The simple process of reproofing your jacket will bring back its original water and wind -resistant finish and protect the fabric from wear. As well as prolonging the life of your waxed cotton, reproofing will improve the fabric’s colour and help to prevent wear along the seams of your jacket.

How often will I need to reproof the Jacket?

This will largely depend upon how often you wear, and how rough you are with your jacket. If a jacket is worn frequently in arduous conditions it will need regular reproofing, much less so if the jacket is only worn occasionally, and keep free from mud and dirt. If you notice that the coat appears to be drying out due to exposure to the elements, this is an indication that it may be time for a quick application of wax. Uneven colour, shiny or dry areas, or where moisture no longer beads on the surface, are a good indicator to reproof those specific areas. It is not necessary to reproof the entire garment, simply address the areas that seem to require it - typical areas being the shoulders, elbows and seat.

How easy is it to reproof a jacket?

It is a relatively simple process, rather like polishing a pair of shoes, but on a slightly larger scale.
