Great value for performance waxing product
So I'll start off by saying if this. If you're looking for a waxy finish on your garment this isn't the product for you. For a more the fashion trend wax look use Otter Wax. If you're looking to water proof and get a little more life out of your clothes this is the product for you. Quick Wax Guide Overview Fjallraven Wax- For performance and function, no waxy looking finish Otter Wax- For waxy looks not for performance or function, no true waterproof seal Project: Like I stated above this product is perfect for function and not for that waxy look. I used it on a canvas jacket from Target for my 5 year old son. I wanted a wax that would waterproof the jacket and add some stiffness to the fabric so I can hopefully get two seasons out of it (granted that depends on how quick my son grows). This worked great and when heated into the canvas was not left with a waxy feel. Application: Suuuuper super easy to apply. It was a bit time consuming to apply but well worth the outcome. Do not heat it up prior to applying (as some suggested), it causes blotchy spots and will 'stain' fabric (learned that the hard way). Simply draw it on until the garment is almost white, I didn't do it the first time and it left me doing another coat. After that I took my hair dryer and melted it into the fabric and vola! A great waxed canvas coat. Size: Some people complained about the size of it but to be honest a little goes a looong way with fabric wax and because this is a performance enhancing wax you're going to pay a little more. I have half of the bar left after two thick coats on a kids jacket which means I have more than enough to wax my husbands canvas bag!

Makes your coat water proof again.
Works like a champ. Rub it in and heat it up with a hair dryer on high and it melts right in. Afterward the water beads up and rolls off. It's note worthy that if you use too much it leaves a dark spot that looks like an oil stain, but it only lasts for a few days.

does the trick!
So I'm an artist and I like keeping my travel art kits in roll type bags that I custom make for myself. I needed a new one and decided I wanted a waxed canvas one and chose to use this one as it was a decent price for the amount. I ended up using 2/3rds of the brick because I wanted my fabric to be HEAVILY waxed and very stiff not just waterproof. It was very time consuming but if I had use the product as designed it would actually have been a fairly quick application. I found that heating the wax up and working with smaller chunks at a time worked better for the heavy application I wanted. I would recommend using it cold if you just want to waterproof your item and don't want discoloration. Just rub it on and melt with hair dryer. The wax will make your fabric appear darker but if applied sparingly as intended, you won't notice it. In my case it is very noticeable but I had dyed the canvas before hand with the idea that the color would be darker with wax and more akin to what it looked like while wet. The wax has very little smell when cold, you may pick up a faint paraffin smell if you put your nose in the fabric. And when warm you may pick up a bit of a beeswax smell. but you have to be looking to smell something. All in all I'm happy with my results and if I ever need to way something again I'll repurchase this product.

It works, with some work
I've used Barbour Thornproof wax on a couple of Barbour jackets and hats for several years, so I'm familiar with the waxing process on garments. The Fjallraven wax is a little different, being much more solid and hard. It takes some elbow grease to apply, the recommended technique being to rub the bar of wax (about the size of a bar of soap) vigorously onto the garment being treated, then heat the garment to melt the wax and let it be absorbed into the cloth. Living in a cool, dry climate, this is not easy, since the arid conditions make the bar of wax even harder. Next time I might try slightly heating the wax first (not melting it, just warming it), which might make it easier to apply. I've used a hairdryer with good success to melt Barbour wax into the garment, but the hairdryer process took forever, and produced mixed results, with the Fjallraven wax. Might be easier in a warmer, more humid climate. I purchased an inexpensive heat gun to use the next time around since a hairdryer simply doesn't get hot enough to do a good job melting the wax. I'll need to be careful not to torch my trousers, though. There is a fine line between just enough heat and ignition. Because the hairdryer didn't suffice where I live, the wax left some streaks. I hope to remedy that with the heat gun. In short, the stuff works, and the finish it leaves has a more pleasant dull appearance than the somewhat shiny surface left by Barbour dressing. It is a chore, though, no way around it. Takes about 45 minutes to do a pair of pants. Its the price one pays for a traditional waxed cotton garment. I wouldn't go through the effort if I didn't use the garment for serious outdoor wear. Waxing is what makes the garment waterproof, though, and waxing does help the treated garment wear better and last longer, particularly by carefully treating the seams. I don't do it for looks, since it doesn't improve the looks. It improves the item's performance. One large bar of the Fjallraven wax will treat several items of clothing. I found it to be virtually odorless, much more pleasant than Barbour wax. I'd rate it three stars because it's a chore to use, 4.5 stars because it is reasonably priced and it works.

Easy to apply. Long-lasting.
Easy to use and waterproof. When I rub the wax onto the fabric it appears white, which is useful because it makes it easy to see where I've applied it, and where I haven't applied it. Then, when using a handheld hair dryer to heat it, the wax readily melts and becomes invisible. I used the corner of the bar to really work the wax into the seams and zippers of a backpack and a carry on luggage. As one corner of the bar becomes rounded or flattened with use, I just rotated the bar to another corner. It's easy to "sharpen" a corner for the next use using a knife. One bar of wax is enough for many applications. I only used maybe 5% of one bar to waterproof two items, so I anticipate that this one bar will last me for years.

Add some water resistance but major 'character' to canvas-style jackets
I've applied this wax to my Orvis canvas-material jacket twice now, and there's plenty left for at least two more applications. It looked good after the first application and better after the second. Before the first application, the jacket had a run-of-the-mill finish....like other cotton canvas jackets. After the first application and some breaking in, the material had a much nicer 'rugged' look like a nicely broken in pair of jeans. Surprisingly I got some compliments on the jacket...I never get compliments on my fashion! It's not as water-resistant as my Barbour Waxed Bedale, but it has nearly as much character. This wax will make the material stiffer, but that's the nature of the product. Application is a bit of a process, and best done with a hair dryer or heat gun as you firmly rub the bar a section at a time.

Yup, it does the trick.
So, I have a cotton duck cycling rain jacket. It looks great and I've had numerous compliments about it, so I use it when hiking or just out and about. However, I also live in Portland, Oregon where it rains for months at a time. This year, the rains came late and I hadn't done my usual yearly routine of water proofing my gear like I should've. I got caught out hiking with my jacket and was utterly drenched, the jacket's factory waterproofing long since wore off. So, I used Fjallraven Greenland Wax's large bar. If you have large hands, get the large bar. You won't use it all in one sitting, but it'll be easier on your hands. I heavily rubbed the bar into jacket, then used a heat gun to melt the wax into the jacket. I then did a second coat and just threw it into a laundromat's dryer on low for a short period. It did darken and stiffen the material a bit, but it also gave it (IMHO) a better look. I've worn it in two heavy rainfalls and several misty/drizzly nights since. The water beaded excellently. Right now, my jacket is repelling water BETTER than my goretex rain coats (HOWEVER, the goretex still breathes better when it's not raining). I don't know how long the weatherproofing will work for, I'm expecting/hoping it'll last the season (similar to my goretex products)

Zuverlässiger Schutz und einfache Anwendung
Das Wachs lässt sich mühelos auftragen und gleichmäßig in den Stoff einarbeiten. Bereits nach dem Einbügeln merkt man, wie Wasser deutlich besser abperlt und die Oberfläche widerstandsfähiger wird. Besonders bei Outdoor-Jacken zeigt sich der Effekt sofort: weniger Feuchtigkeit, weniger Schmutzaufnahme und spürbar mehr Schutz vor Wind. Die Dose hält lange, da man nur wenig Material benötigt. Für die regelmäßige Pflege von G-1000-Gewebe oder anderen Baumwollmischungen ist das eine sehr effektive und nachhaltige Lösung. Fazit: Ein hochwertiges Pflegeprodukt, das Stoffe zuverlässig imprägniert und ihre Lebensdauer verlängert. Für Outdoor-Bekleidung absolut empfehlenswert.
