Product Info

Intended Use: Everyday Outdoor
We recommend this for:
Refortifying the waterproof barrier on your Fjällraven G-1000 products.
Technical Features
- Wax impregnation for garments in G-1000 fabric
- Made without the use of PFCs
- Uses peraffin and beeswax
- Made without the use of PFCs
- One block is enough for about ten garments
- Rub on and melt in
1. Apply wax
Take the block of Greenland Wax and rub it with long, smooth strokes against the fabric leaving behind a thin, even layer. You’ll want to apply some pressure when you do this, but not too much that your movements becomes jerky.
2. Heat
Using an iron (or a hairdryer) on low to moderate heat, melt the wax into the fabric. Again use long, even strokes. Greenland Wax melts at between 55°C and 60°C (131-140°F), so try to keep the iron temperature around this point – you don’t want the wax to get too runny. Don’t forget to wipe off the iron after use before ironing other garments.
*For products with down use a hair dryer to heat
3. Repeat
This step isn’t always necessary, but if you want to make the fabric even more water resistant, repeat the process several times rather than applying a single, thick layer of wax. This is a good idea for exposed sections of the garment such as the hood and shoulders or the knees and rear.
