Product Details

Sno-Seal Original Beeswax Waterproofing protects leather from rain, sun, snow and salt. Sno-Seal is also great for waxed cotton and tent seams. The beeswax formula dries to a solid wax that stays put in the surface of the leather so it lasts longer. Our competitors' greases, oils and animal products are able to migrate through the leather till they clog all the pores. These waterproofing products fill the natural spaces that are supposed to absorb perspiration and insulate. In addition, animal fats weaken and rot leather. The tannery worked hard to remove the fats and preserve the leather, so it's hard to imagine why you'd put it back on. Sno-Seal will help you feel more comfortable in Gore-Tex fabric lined boots because it allows the Gore-Tex absorbed perspiration to escape out of the leather. Not only will Sno-Seal keep you warm and dry, it will also help you from getting tired. A typical leather boot can soak up to a pound of water. That means you lift an additional 2,212 lbs. to walk one mile. Sno-Seal keeps the whole boot dry, warm and light.
  • Suitable for leather, wax cotton and tent seams
  • Protects leather from rain, sun, snow and salt
  • Conditions leather without softening
  • Natural wax that unlike other products will never weaken, decay or break down leather, stitching and seams
  • Beeswax formula dries to a solid wax that stays put in the surface of the leather
  • Lubricates leather and protects against drying and deterioration for longer than greases, oils and animal fats
  • Fills the natural spaces that are supposed to absorb perspiration and insulate
  • Has a melt point of 155°F, so that even on the hottest day it does not migrate through the leather
  • Preheating leather between 110°F to 125°F before application allows sno-seal to easily melt and penetrate pores and fibers immediately
  • Not recommended for suede leather

Answer This Question

A:  No, it will not work on fabric only on leather.

    A:  Hi thanks for your question! Our product is designed only for use on stainless steel and can be tinted to any color. This product is a strong acid and will dissolve materials like cotton, leather, and canvas. For this reason we cannot recommend using this on a hooded sweatshirt. Have a great day!

          I have been using this product for many years. I started using it as a young man in the boy scouts. I had a Scout Leader that had introduced me to it back in the seventies while living in Minnesota. We did not use it in leather, but on tent seams to seal them from leaking. We would put some Sno-Seal into a babyfood jar and melt it in hot water. After warming the canvas seams with a hair drier, we would "paint" the warmed seams with the melted Sno-Seal. I then soaked completely through the seam and we did this all along the seams. No more tent leaks!! I plan on doing a similar thing to my trail saddle and headgear. I have used it on almost any and all of my boots that I wear outside. I looked all over for it in the local area ( I now live in S.W. Missouri ), and no one carried it, which is why I ordered it on-line and a large size. I won't have to go looking for it any time soon. Thanks for a GREAT product and keeping it as it was!!

              I have depended on Sno-seal to keep boots and shoes waterproof and looking good for decades. It’s easy to use, econocal, and highly effective. No need to read directions either.

              Sno-seal works like a champ! I use it on my leather boots and casual shoes to protect from the elements. Salt and water in the winter can devastate the leather. If you apply a good coat of Sno-seal your footwear will be well protected
