In this video I show how to apply wax (beeswax) to fabric, in this case light canvas. This makes the material water-resistant. Both natural beeswax, or paraffin can be used - often times both can be mixed and applied. Here I am applying the wax to fabric that I have tie-dyed with black walnut stain.

WARNING: Be very careful when using hot wax...severe burns can occur.
