Description
How do I reproof my oilskin product? Periodic application of Duck Back Reproofing cream to the seams, friction points, and any dry areas will prolong the life and waterproof nature of your coat. 1) start with a clean, dry coat and a warm (hot) day 2) place coat in the sunshine for several minutes to allow it to heat up so it feels warm and supple to the touch. Do not leave unattended for extended period as with many fabrics, extended exposure to sunlight will sun-bleach the fabric. 3) warm up the Duck Back dressing by putting the jar in the sun or in a pan of hot water 4) apply dressing sparingly to the coat using a clean cloth - a little extra to the seams and friction points 5) the sun will spread the dressing evenly and quickly through the coat fabric 6) a hand-held hair drier can be used to work the dressing into the cloth if you are reproofing when it is not hot and sunny2.
