waterproofing for coats that's cheap. FLAMMABLE

FLAMMABLE
Post #1 describes REZ from CTC, and it says on the jug, that it can be used on canvas.
I didn't see a mention of flammable, but after the posts above, I tried it.

Not as flammable as gas, or oil, but definitely combustible. The fabric I tried it on had not dried completely, and lit up fairly easily with a match

That's good to know if your going to be around campfires.
Hope it's not too flamable since people might want to use it on tents.
Thanks for the update.
 
try olive oil on leather, as for a cheap rain coat, glad garbage bags work great, are cheap easy to carry and serve more than one purpose, one size does fit all. poke a hole in for neck and arms and off you go.

If you cut it right, you get a hood for your head, not just a hole for you neck that lets rain in. PM for details.
 
And I use Thompson's water seal on almost everything. Must try the waxing trick though. Washer and dryer at work used for greasy/oily clothes. Think I'll use that one. Thanks for the tip.
