http://www.amazon.com/Scotchgard-Durabl ... B004ZP83HI This stuff works fairly well. It's not as functional on cotton, but does ok. |

I've heard nikwax is the best and they have a detergent for waterproof breatheable gear. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

This is what I use on cotton and canvas material. It's a lengthy process but works well. |

Hmmm, haven't seen all that, may have to get on YouTube and take a look. I just wash and dry what ever I'm about to water proof right before I do it. Then I just lay it flat on a table or my hardwood floor and I go to town rubbing the wax in to the material, once it's got a good coating I go over it with a hot iron real good. Then I let it sit, usually over night cause I'm tired of fooling with it, then I'll apply another coating or two the m same way I did the first. Here is a link to where I got the idea from. http://llbeansignature.tumblr.com/post/ ... hirt-1-lay |
