Barbour Beadnell Wax Jacket - Brown - UK 12

Re-wax your jacket when water no longer beads off the surface, typically every year or two, depending on use.

No, washing machines and dry cleaning will damage the wax finish. Sponge clean only.

Use Barbour Thornproof Wax, as it is specifically designed for Barbour jackets.

Store it in a cool, dry place, preferably hanging up to avoid creases. Avoid direct sunlight and heat.

No, never use a hairdryer or any direct heat source, as it can damage the wax.

For minor tears, consider getting it professionally repaired by a seamstress who is familiar with waxed cotton. Barbour also offers repair services.

The waxed cotton makes the jacket water-resistant, not fully waterproof. It provides protection against light to moderate rain.

Re-wax the jacket using Barbour Thornproof Wax. Ensure the wax is applied evenly and according to the manufacturer's instructions.

The stiffness is typical of waxed cotton. Wear the jacket regularly to soften the fabric. Alternatively, apply a small amount of wax to the affected areas.

The wax smell will fade over time. To accelerate the process, hang the jacket in a well-ventilated area.

Gently sponge clean the affected area with cold water. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain. For stubborn stains, consult a professional wax jacket cleaner.
