I did a light weight 100% cotton field jacket with the Barbour and it turned out great, very supple and soft unlike a Filson tin clothe or similar but I probably could have coated it again to get more of a stiff finish..I did another 511 tactical heavy shirt with the Otter and the diff is it goes on thicker brushed and has a lot more of a thick coating before the heat process to impreganate it into the clothe..Another great way to apply it is heat the wax by sticking the heat gun on high right into the top of the can and when it melts a little stick the brush in and paint it on the garment spreading it as you use the heat gun and brush as you wipe off the excess before it dries which is much quicker than putting it all on the stove to melt it completely before applying..When I was finished both gave me excellent results with the Otter somewhat stiffer similar to a Filson finish..I find using a old iron to get this Into the clothe is best on easy to iron clothe then clean up any other spots with a heat gun or hair dryer just don't over do it or it will travel right thorough the clothe to the surface its on..This is a excellent procedure for both..My results were great and it was my first time. I think I'll stick with the Otter for price as you get twice the amount for the same cost and you will use the same per garment. Although the Barbour is easier and melts quicker and is more supple as you will have a hard time to know if the garment is Borboured by its looks and feel as it is soft but waterproof not stiff like Otter..Both are good though and if you don't screw it up you should be satisfied with either, but understand there is a reason you pay the $400 + cost for waxed jackets because they are a choir to do and you are paying for it so save and spend a coupler hours to save a couple hundred and do it to whatever you need to do it to..Up date; the garment I did is super water proof but it really smells and it smells everything else up in the storage. When I hang it in the garage, as soon as I enter it I can smell it a mile away..From now on only hunting clothes.. Review: Great product! Definitely weatherproofed my tent! - After melting 3 cans and trying to paint and scrape and rub this wax on to a canvas tent roof, I started to question my life choices that brought be to this point in my life. Then I noticed a missed spot and took a chunk of hard wax from an empty can and rubbed it on. It worked great. That’s when I came up with the idea to just make my own “rub” bars from the cans. I heated up 4 cans and poured them in to 3oz soap molds making 24 bars. On a 55°f day in direct sun the fabric is hot enough to melt and set the wax, just with less mess and I’m also able to more precisely apply it to needed locations. I like this wax and it definitely waterproofed the fabric. The smell is also pleasant and not harsh whatsoever. However you choose to apply this wax, I highly recommend it! ## Features - Superior Water Resistance: Creates a durable, water-resistant barrier to protect fabrics from moisture from the elements. - Heat-Activated Application: Easy to apply with heat for deep penetration into fabric fibers, ensuring long-lasting protection. - Versatile Use: Ideal for outdoor gear, jackets, bags, and other fabric items that need enhanced durability and weatherproofing. - Eco-Friendly Formula: Made with all-natural beeswax and plant-based ingredients, free from harmful chemicals and petroleum. - Sustainably Made in the USA: Handcrafted in Portland, Oregon, reflecting our commitment to quality, sustainability, and environmental responsibility. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0DJCHJJN9 | | Best Sellers Rank | #67,953 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #36 in Household Fabric Upholstery Cleaners | | Brand | Otter Wax | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (1,857) | | Date First Available | October 1, 2024 | | Item Weight | 1.06 pounds | | Manufacturer | Otter Wax | | Model | 1 Pint | | Package Dimensions | 3.9 x 3.27 x 3.15 inches | ## Images ![Otter Wax Heat-Activated Fabric Dressing | 1 Pint | Meltable Waterproofing Treatment for Waxed Canvas Jackets & Rain Gear | All-Natural & PFAS-Free Beeswax Protectant | Made in Portland USA - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81gisKjD29L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ excellent, but your garment will stink "a lot".. *by M***M on October 13, 2025* I used Barbour wax initially and then tried this Otter..I like both and in my opinion they differ.

I needed to waterproof a canvas watercolor field bag. I found the perfect one on Amazon for around $40. The trouble is, the cavas was not water resistant at all. The quality and price of the bag were too good to pass on, so I decided to try and waterproof it with this product. It takes forever for the wax to melt…and, then, it goes from milky to clear before you should even think about applying it. I used a stiff 1-1/2” wide paint brush with stiff bristles. I could get, maybe, a 3” section of the bag sort of done and then had to put the brush back in the can to remelt everything and get the wax compound hot enough to go clear again. In any event, the bag tool four hours and looked awful, with missed sections and chunks of unabsorbed wax everywhere. So, the next day, I started rubbing tiny sections with my thumb and fingers. That actually works. As friction heats up the wax, the canvas absorbs it better and you start getting a uniform look….But life isn’t long enough to complete a backpack by that method, so I got out my heat gun. 90 minutes and I had a gorgeous, water proof, waxed canvas watercolor field bag. It’s been a week, now, and I would do this again…..but do yourself a favor and buy or borrow a good heat gun. Use it on low, to where it melts any bits of wax and the canvas absorbs them instantly. Fill in with the wax you scraped off with your wood tool (I used popsicle stick) when first applying the melted wax. Just kind stick it where you want it and melt it into the canvas with the heat gun. ## Frequently Bought Together - Otter Wax Heat-Activated Fabric Dressing | 1 Pint | All-Natural Canvas Water Repellent | Made in USA - Otter Wax Fabric Wax Bar | Large Bar | Durable Rain Protection | Made in the USA | Waterproof Canvas, Shoes, Hats, Jacket, Bags, Outdoor Gear, Clothing | All-Natural & Effective Beeswax Waterproofer - Otter Wax Heat-Activated Fabric Dressing | 1/2 Pint | All-Natural Water Repellent | Made in USA --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/662619972-otter-wax-heat-activated-fabric-dressing-1-pint-meltable-waterproofing](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/662619972-otter-wax-heat-activated-fabric-dressing-1-pint-meltable-waterproofing) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
