I want to reapply wax to my Rivendell bags. Esp my BagBoy, which is 5 years old and probably needs it the most. Has anyone here done it? What product and what method did you use?Thanks!Leah--

Well, this option looks good, too. I wonder what ingredients are in that wax…

I’ve used the Carradice wax. I figure they would have a decent product for the job. I applied using their directions. Heat the tin in warm water. Rub on the softened wax with a rag and then finish with a hair dryer/heat gun to get it to soak in better.Filson carries waxes for their jackets and I bet that would work as well.Robert TilleySan Diego, CASent from my iPhone

I just wanted to say thank you for this very helpful thread. I rode the NYC Half-Century in a monsoon in Sept. 2023, and while I was one of the few participants with a smile due to his fenders, by the end, my 2013 Sackville small trunksack on a rando rack was holding at least an inch of standing water inside. It was a swimming pool! I'd been wondering what solutions are out there (aside from the obvious "bag yer stuff inside"). Otter Wax fabric dressing to the rescue. --Will M in NY
