Barbour Thornproof Dressing, No Color, One Size

We did watch tutorials on how to apply. Used sponge to apply and hair dryer to keep warm after putting the can it in pot of hot water. Took a while and takes care to evenly apply but was enjoyable and jacket looked refreshed and protective and beautiful and new.

I purchased this instead of the Otter wax as I felt the reviews were better. Otter wax at 16oz is the same price as this Barbour at 8oz which I'm not happy but wanted to try the Babour..Did a light weight 100% cotton jacket following instructions on the can using a cotton rolled up sock to apply. It worked but feel a brush would do a better job with less mess regardless of their instructions. Also tried the hair dryer and or heat gun to evenly distribute the wax and found the ideal absolute best way to do this was with a old iron ,non steam I used to wax my skis with..This method did a excellent job of letting it penetrate evenly and gave it a great result..The jacket turned out very soft and supple with plenty of wax impregnated throughout with a single application. I did not get the crinkle type patina some like as by looking at it you would not know it is a waxed jacket but I believe I could do another application to get those results or perhaps the shine like a Filson..Do The Iron in method for excellent results..Also a brush on method should work fine as using a cotton applicator to rub it in seams useless as the final application of a heat source is what really allows this to penetrate regardless..1 can did a below waist light weight jacket and I used it kind of sparingly..To be sure get 2 cans to do an average size coat or garment. Barbour is not cheap for 8oz but the excellent results are a finish which is soft and not stiff with one application at least my result..I will try the Otter wax next before I pay double for this again..

Enough product to rewax my coat every year for next five years! This dressing was easy to apply to my elderly Lewis Creek wax cotton coat. The coat looks so much better. Id suggest applying the dressing in spring or summer so the coat can be aired outside after applying dressing. The smell at first is rather strong.

First time redoing my coat. Followed the instructions, made my jacket new again after 5 years. It had developed some white marks on the sleeve. This dressing cleaned them up now gone! This is a must have product for every Barbour jacket owner. Seems. Bit expensive, but is worth the money.

I have a love/hate with this product.. It's expensive.. depending on what your waxing, (the size and how saturated you want it) you could be stuck buying alot.. I just had to buy a second tin of it.. The coat I'm doing is full length but still, I thought one container would do it.. I like this stuff more than Otter Wax though because it doesn't smell bad.. it doesn't have much of a smell at all compared to Otter Wax, which smells bad imo.. I would heat to a liquid or near that, and apply with a sponge or glove (to conserve) getting it on evenly can be challenging.. I would use a hair dryer, not a heat gun, if you want a shine/sheen to it.. the heat gun was too hot and the Wax dissolved deep into the cloth bc of it.., rather than giving a surface shine, it just looked damp.. this stuff will permanently darker whatever you're waxing btw.. decent product, just very expensive in the end if you want to get it right and do thorough coatings..

There is a learning curve to get used to how to apply, but once you heat it up to a good temperature and keep working it with a hair dryer on one hand to keep it warm while applying to the jacket, it works like a charm. The key is to keep the jacket and the wax warm at all times, so it is more fluid. In the factory, they do this on a warm plate, so the jacket is warm all the time when applying wax. The hair dryer also works well. My beat-up 8-year-old jacket turned out to be new again, amazing instant upgrade. Barbour stores used to do these relatively cheap, but they ask too much now I think close to $100. This is your best bet.

Great wax for any jacket Barbour or otherwise! Though a touch pricier than others like Otter Wax, I feel like anyway. I’ve used it on both my Barbour jackets and a few Kuhl ones.

After reading a lot of reviews, I thought this process would be tricky. But it was easy and quick to wax my Barbour jacket, hood, and even the dog’s jacket. It took maybe 15 minutes to apply, heat with an hair dryer, and wipe clean. I opened the wax can, put it in a pot of a few inches of water, and heated it up on low heat until all of the wax had melted. Then I used an old washcloth that I would later throw away, dipped it in the melted wax and rubbed it all over the jacket in small sections, making sure that it was a thin coat and that wax got right into all of the seams. Then I used a hairdryer directly on small sections of the jacket to melt the wax into the fabric and wiped it all down with the same washcloth to take off any excess wax. The jacket looks fantastic. I was surprised at how easy and quick this process was.
