Men’s Wax Diamond Quilted Lincoln Gilet

Cleaning Your Wax Quilted Gilet

Brush Off Loose Dirt: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt, especially around seams and quilting. Keeping the gilet clean preserves its wax finish.

Spot Clean Stains: Gently dab at stains with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid heavy washing to protect the wax layer.

Rinse Carefully: Rinse lightly with cold water if needed, and let the gilet air dry naturally, away from heat sources.

Restoring the Waterproof Barrier on Your Wax Quilted Gilet

Choose the Right Wax: Choose a wax dressing or spray specifically for quilted gilets, ensuring maximum water resistance.

Apply in a Well-Ventilated Area: Lay the gilet flat or hang it in a ventilated space to make wax application easier.

Warm the Wax: Warm the wax in hot water to make it easier to spread evenly.

Apply the Wax: Focus on seams and high-wear areas, applying wax carefully to ensure full coverage.

Allow to Soak In: Let the wax set for 12 hours so it penetrates the fabric fully.

Buff the Surface: Buff the gilet after it dries to remove any excess wax and give it a smooth finish.

Protecting Your Wax Quilted Gilet

Store Properly: Store your quilted gilet on a broad hanger in a cool, dry area to prevent wax degradation.

Avoid Over-Washing: Avoid frequent washing; spot clean to keep the wax coating intact.

Repair Damages Promptly: Patch small tears immediately to avoid larger problems.

Regular Reproofing: Reproof every 6 to 12 months, depending on use, to ensure ongoing water resistance.
