How do I clean and maintain my waxed canvas?
Brush or rinse with cool water. Avoid detergents/machine washing. Spot clean with mild or saddle soap, then air-dry. Re-wax when the surface looks dry. See our Waxed Canvas Tips, Tricks & Care Instructions.
How do I re-wax this fabric?
Warm the surface slightly, apply a thin coat of fabric wax, and gently heat so it absorbs evenly. Detailed steps on our Care & Re-Waxing Guide.
Will wax transfer onto other materials?
Minor transfer is normal as patina develops. Avoid storing directly against white or delicate fabrics.

Avoid direct ironing. Use low, indirect heat (hairdryer) to soften or smooth before working.
Is it fire-retardant?
No. Keep away from open flame and high heat sources.
