Question about wax ontop of oilskin fabric
Hello all,
I am currently in the process of designing a tent to be made with some kind of waterproofed canvas, but I am unsure which method specifically to use for waterproofing the fabric. I plan to make the canvas into an oilskin or oilcloth material with linseed oil, but I am also curious about waxing the canvas. Would it be possible, do you think, for me to wax the fabric after applying the oil and allowing it to dry/solidify? Also, how long should I wait before waxing the oilskin, in order to ensure that it won't still be wet when the wax is applied?
Thanks!
