Afterpay – How it works
Sno-Seal Original Beeswax Waterproofing keeps your leather shoes protected from rain sun, snow and salt in a formula that dries to a solid wax and stays in the surface of the leather for longer-acting performance. Adding beeswax waterproofing keeps your footwear from absorbing water and getting heavier and works in tandem with waterproof/breathable membranes to allow perspiration to escape to escape through the leather to keep your boots dry, warm and light.
  • SNO-SEAL Beeswax waterproofing lubricates leather and protects against drying and deterioration for longer than greases, oils and animal fats.
  • SNO-SEAL is a natural wax and, unlike other products, will never weaken, decay, or break down the leather or stitching and seams
  • The magic of SNO-SEAL is that AFTER application it has a melt point of 68°C so that even on the hottest day it does not migrate through the leather. It STAYS in the top surface of the leather, where it is needed for waterproofness, so it does not require frequent reapplication.
  • Also great for waxed cotton and tent seams
  • For best results:
    • Preheat clean and dry boots or shoes (use heat lamp, sunny window, hair dryer, warm air from central heat or even a 51°C oven): do not heat beyond comfortable handling temperature of 49°C
    • Rub SNO-SEAL into warmed leather liberally: the warm leather will melt the SNO-SEAL and draw it deep into the pores and fibres
    • Return your boot to the heat and do the same with the other
    • When the initial application has been absorbed your footwear will have a dull appearance, add more to the dull areas until each item remains shiny for a few minutes
    • Seal the jar after use to prevent the wax formulation from hardening
  • CAUTION: will somewhat darken all leather. Not recommended for suede leather. If used on suede it will darken and flatten the nap, changing the appearance. (It will water proof and preserve the leather).
  • WARNING: keep out of reach of children
  • You can apply colour shoe polish right over the SNO-SEAL
