Patrick, is butch wax different from pomade? I haven't had a super-short haircut since I was 12 or 13, when I got totally buzzed (shorter than crew cut), together with a friend, on a dare from another friend. Yeah, stupid things teens do…
I used beeswax to waterproof the Brompton bag that I made from Joann Fabric heavyweight cotton canvas. I was surprised at how much beeswax the fabric absorbed, once heated up with a hairdryer. It took almost a fist-sized amount and didn't even exhibit the sheen I've seen on commercially treated cotton (like on some Filsons), much less extrude a surface layer that would crack when the underlying fabric is flexed (as I had feared). It did bead and shed water like a duck, and that's all that I cared about. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
