MAINTAINING YOUR APRON
-  Your apron can last for years with the proper care
Cleaning
Regular cleaning not only enhances the appearance of your garment but removes dirt and abrasive materials that can cause premature wear. Regular cleaning can also prevent dirt build-up from becoming deep irremovable stains.
To prevent the breakdown of the wax finish do NOT:
Machine wash
Clean with warm/hot water
Clean with detergents/solvents/bleach
Dry clean
Machine dry or tumble dry
​Scrub aggressively
To clean:
Shake or brush off dirt, saw dust, and grit
Hose off or sponge wipe with cold water only
For additional cleaning, soak and gently massage spots using cold water and castile soap
Thoroughly rinse out soap
Hang dry in warm room for 24 hours
Refinishing/Rewaxing
Most waxed cotton garments will need refinishing at some point depending on frequency of use. Uneven, shiny or dry areas, or where moisture no longer beads, is a good indicator to rewax those specific areas. On top of prolonging the life of your apron, rewaxing will also revive the fabric color and bring back a uniform look. It is not necessary to rewax the entire garment unless the entire wax finish has been jeopardized.
To refinish:
Be sure that the garment is clean and dry
Use Otter Wax, Martexin Wax, or any other fabric wax
Lay apron on a flat work surface (protect surface if necessary)
Apply the wax sparingly with a soft, lint-free cotton cloth or brush
Spread the wax evenly for a uniform look
Work it into the fabric in a circular motion
Use hair dryer to heat fabric and wax to facilitate a smooth and thorough application
Do not coat the surface too thickly or it will not be able to absorb it all
Seams and worn areas will require more wax
Heat from a hair dryer or laying in the sun can facilitate the absorption into the canvas
Wipe off excess wax and hang garment to dry in a warm, well-ventilated area
The next day, wipe off any excess oil not absorbed
Apply more wax to areas that still appear shiny or dry
Note - You may notice a waxy odor after waxing. It will air out after a few days. It can also be removed by placing your apron in a freezer overnight.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Q:
As the wax treatment wears over time, how do you suggest that it be restored or reapplied? What product should be used, and how should it be applied?
A:
We prefer using Otter Wax (fabric wax). It is great stuff. You can reapply simply by hand rubbing it on and heating it in with a heat gun or blow dryer. To facilicate the uptake of the wax from the bar into the material, you can preheat the area of fabric with your heat gun. You can also apply heat to the bar wax to al… see more
Q:
Petite folks (around 5' 3" or smaller): does this apron fit you or does one size fits all really mean one size fits most men?
A:
Hi Jen, Good question! The female model in the photos is 5' 2". The straps allow for a lot of adjustment. You'll find the length of the apron can be adjusted by tying the apron tighter and higher up your torso to shorten it or a bit slouched if you want it longer. I hope this helps!
Q:
I'm a fat man, will this apron fit a 58" waist?
A:
I'm a big guy as well, and it fits me just fine with lots of slack in the straps. The apron itself is wide enough that it still provides plenty of coverage on the sides, too. Great build quality, and it works well in the machine shop to protect my clothes from flying chips.
Q:

Q:
Is there a secret to getting this thing on easier? Its awkward and fighting with the straps here.
A:
I find it mysterious all the comments about how difficult it is to don. My April 7, 2019 review has a photo showing how easy it is once the initial strap adjustment to fit your torso is made. Since it’s too complicated to describe in words, just go find the review. Hold it as my photo shows, duck your head through the … see more

Q:
are there any aprons similar to this that are not waxed and can be machine washed? I am not a fan of the waxed canvas.
A:
Good question! Check this one out: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01MTXPN0E/
Q:
Size is XL up to XXL. But can't tell whether it actually 'starts' smaller -- ie, will it fit a slender 160 lb person?
A:
Hello, Thanks for your question. The female model is 5' 2" , 125 lbs and it fits comfortably without "swimming" in the apron. This should fit very well at 160. If you have any issue with the sizing and fit after using, just let us know and we'll take it back. Cheers,… see more
