How To Use The Mending Bar

Method 1

1) Grate or chop mending bar into small pieces and sprinkle evenly over cotton fabrics

2) Line a baking tray with baking paper and pop into the oven at 80C to 100C for five minutes or until the wax has fully melted. Anything above 100C is not good for the wax.

3) Remove from oven (careful, it’s hot!). Quickly peel the fabric away from the baking paper. Wave the fabric around gently until the wax is cool and it’s ready to use.

4) If needed, sprinkle additional beeswax over any spots that are not yet coated. Pop it back into the oven. Let it cool on a rack and it’s ready!
