Austyn Report post Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) Hey friends! Im new to waxing leather! Ive been using a wool cloth to rub the wax into the leather but it just leaves little hairs all over. What type of cloth should I use? Any type of waxing info would be out standing! Thank you! Best, Austyn Edited August 20, 2014 by Austyn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
camano ridge Report post Posted August 20, 2014 Any lintless cloth. Some people use shearling. What type of "wax" are you using? Are you waxing products that you have made or waxing store bought products? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomG Report post Posted August 20, 2014 I bought a bolt of heavy white fabric - I think it's duck cloth maybe? Sort of a lightweight canvas with a tight weave. Paid about $5 and been cutting pieces off it for several years. I apply with that and when dried, I buff with a piece of wool. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

camano ridge Report post Posted August 20, 2014 I use a similar mix, most of the time I use my fingers to rub it in. On larger surfaces lik rifle scabbards I us a cotton terry wax applicator from local auto parts store. You can get the applicatorsat Wal-Mart etc. Even a terry cloth towel should be pretty lint free.
