With the »Wax Thornproof Dressing« you can re-wax your waxed jackets, especially Barbour waxed jackets, and maintain their water-repellent and particularly hard-wearing surface. Suitable for all types of Barbour waxed cotton, the application of Barbour wax dressing allows you to keep your waxed jackets and other waxed products in top condition.

Here are the steps for applying it properly:

1. Required utensils:You require a pan of hot water and a lint-free cotton cloth or sponge.
2. Preparation: Make sure that your jacket has been thoroughly cleaned beforehand. You can do this with a cloth and some natural soap. Be sure never to use hot water, cleaning agents, solvents, or detergent. Dry cleaning or machine washing are also not recommended.
3. Removing soap residue: If you use soap, make sure that all soap residue has been thoroughly removed afterwards with clear, lukewarm water.
4. Softening the wax: Place the wax tin in hot water to soften the wax.
5. Warming the jacket: The wax is best applied when the temperature difference between the jacket and the wax is as low as possible. It is therefore advisable to warm up the jacket slightly, for example by using a hairdryer.
6. Applying the wax: Thoroughly apply the wax to the garment using a cotton cloth or sponge. Particular attention should be paid to seams, creases and dry patches. Apply the wax as thinly as possible.
7. Massaging in the wax: Rub the wax in well instead of just painting it on.
8. Avoid overdosing: Be careful to not use too much wax dressing.
9. Even heating: For an even result, after applying the wax heat the garment evenly with a hairdryer.
10. Drying and wiping off: Hang the garment in a warm place so that it can dry overnight. After about 24 hours you can gently remove any excess wax residue with a lint-free cotton cloth.

One can of »Wax Thornproof Dressing« is usually sufficient to re-wax about one jacket. However, if your jacket has not been waxed for a long time or is particularly dry, you may need up to two cans.

Barbour

The history of Barbour dates back to 1894 when John Barbour opened his first store on Market Place in South Shields. In the emerging port town in the northeast of England, the company established itself by manufacturing weatherproof clothing, including oilskins, for sailors, fishermen, and dockworkers. John Barbour, a Scottish entrepreneur from Galloway, laid the foundation for the company's success. With its first catalogue in 1908, the company expanded its global customer base and received orders from countries such as Chile and Hong Kong. During the World Wars, the company produced weatherproof clothing for the British military, including the famous Ursula Suit, which became standard attire for British submarine crews during World War II. In 1936, Barbour developed the »International« motorcycle suit, from which the similarly named jacket later emerged. This jacket was worn by many motorcyclists from the 1950s to the 1970s, including the US actor Steve McQueen. Over time, Barbour expanded its collections for hunting and equestrian sports and was awarded the Royal Warrant of Appointment in 1974. In the 1980s, Dame Margaret Barbour, the company's chairwoman, designed three legendary waxed jackets - the Bedale, the Beaufort and the Border Jacket. These jackets, which have since become Barbour icons, are still manufactured by 120 employees at the company's in-house production facility in England. Today, the family-owned business is in its fifth generation of leadership and continues to be headquartered in the northeast of England.
