WAX FINISHES AVAILABLE

We have three different wax finishes available for use to provide the jacket reproofing. They are as follows;

1. Basic / Fashion Wax 

This is a basic wax dressing and has little or no sticky, oily touch finish. Ideal for the modern waxed cotton jacket / garment, which are getting increasingly more popular.

2. Silk-Oil Wax Finish

(EXTRA charge of $6.33 (Approx.) + any % for size)

This finish is the most popular, does have a little sticky finish to the touch. But this does settle down after a few weeks and is ideal for more outdoor use as it gives a very good water resistant finish. This wax is supplied direct from a UK manufacturer of waxed cotton fabric.

3.  Fashion Wax Finish

(EXTRA charge of $6.33 (Approx.) + any % for size)

This is a new finish introduced (Sept 22), this has been developed over a couple of years. This finish of wax dressing is superb for people who require a waxed and darker look, but don’t really want any sticky or oily residue, but will still give a basic water resistant / repellent finish. Great for the modern wax jacket that did not originally have a noticeable waxy finish.

4. Heavy Wax Finish

(EXTRA charge of $12.65 (Approx.) + any % for size)

This finish can be very sticky and has an oily touch. This will give as close to waterproof (but not guaranteed) as possible, not advisable to be worn for anything other than outdoor usage. Ideal for Riding Coats and Full Length Stockman’s, not ideal when used for casual wear.

5. Dry Wax Finish

(EXTRA charge of $12.65 (Approx.) + any % for size)

Dry wax is a new innovation in the production of wax jackets – it’s dry to the touch, so it doesn’t have that slightly wet feel of more traditional wax jackets. Unlike traditional waxes, dry wax is not compromised by room temperature – ensuring it’s durable, water resistant, stain resistant properties. This wax dressing does and will crack-up and will leave a used / antique look, but its water-resistant properties are not compromised in any way! Even if your garment was not originally a ‘DRY WAXED’ finish, most can have this applied if desired.(T’s & C’s apply).

The usual way to apply is via a ‘Wax Bar’ which is very time consuming and can only be done by the owner of the item with no 3rd Party companies offering this service!! Here at WJC have developed a system to apply this wax in a Hot Liquid format!! No other company can or will offer the wax or service.
PLEASE NOTE THIS FINISH WILL ONLY BE APPLIED TO JACKETS THAT ORIGINALLY HAD A DRY WAX FINISH IN THE FIRST PLACE. IF YOUR JACKET IS NOT A DRY WAX FINISHED JACKET, WE WILL REVERT BACK TO OUR DEFAULT FINISH, THE SILK-OIL FINISH, AND YOU WILL BE CHARGED ACCORDINGLY (£5.00 INSTEAD OF £10.00 FOR THE FINISH).

PLEASE NOTE:

WE DO NOT RECOMMEND WHICH WAX TO USE.

IF NOT SPECIFIED, SILK-OIL WAX WILL BE USED BY DEFAULT.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

A couple of things that can influence the cost are: 

1. Which courier you use. We will be using UPS / ParcelForce for international shipments for many reasons, and they will be the default carrier we use.
2. How you package the item. As volumetric weight is used to determine the costs of the shipment, if you parcel the jacket up in a huge box, expect a huge cost (potentially. We would prefer to keep the shipping costs down!) With that in mind, use a plastic postal bag if you are wanting the shipping to be as cheap, yet reliable as possible!
3. While this isn’t tied to the shipment (per se), it will be involved with the final cost. If you decide that you would prefer us to insure your item, extra charges will occur. 

Most manufacturers would prefer you buy a NEW one, but that’s not very eco-friendly or cost effective. 

Here at Wax Jackets Cleaned, we have the solution!

TERMS & CONDITIONS

We DO NOT give estimates or quotations over the telephone, we only quote once we have seen the garment, if you want to send some pictures we can hopefully give a rough estimate for the works, please email us – waxit@waxjacketscleaned.co.uk

Please also be aware that not all stains can be removed, there are limitations with the gentle cleaning procedure but we endeavour to achieve the best results possible WITHOUT DAMAGING the garment.

Most come perfectly clean, but the garments will be clean and most importantly, “FULLY WEARABLE” once again.

We do NOT guarantee that your jacket or trousers will be 100% waterproof.

But please say how you plan to use your garment/s as we will endeavour to get as close to waterproof as possible.

NO “new” WAXED COTTON IS GUARANTEED 100% WATERPROOF

• Some garments can and will change colour slightly, some will change dramatically. Wax dressings are a neutral colour and have no dyes. Special finishes on modern wax cotton garment can never be replicated
• Wax jackets are an outdoor item of clothing. After the cleaning & reproofing of your jacket, we advise NOT to wear indoors or in motor vehicles as the wax dressing will transfer on to other fabrics
• After the process, some jackets have more of a sticker finish than others, but this will settle down after a short time of wearing 
• Your item will NOT come back NEW it will be returned cleaned and professionally re-waxed by hand
• Cleaned means we will get it as clean as possible, it is a gentle cleaning process so there are limitations
• In 95% of cases we get them perfectly clean, some stains may still be visible!
• Please allow up-to 6 weeks from when Wax Jackets Cleaned receive your item/s for them to be returned to you with the work required completed
