What is the purpose of canvas

How to do waterproof treatment for canvas

The simplest waterproof treatment method is to add a layer of sealing wax coating on the canvas. First, fill the canvas with beeswax, then use a hot air gun or hair dryer to blow the beeswax until it melts, allowing it to penetrate deep into the fabric. Afterwards, place the canvas in a cool place and let it dry for about 10-20 minutes.

Large factories mainly use PVC coating to produce waterproof canvas, so the production cost of waterproof canvas will not be too high.

First, use edge banding glue to fix the edges of the canvas, and then use an edge banding machine to sew it up.

If it is made of fine canvas material, it can be dyed using conventional fabric dyeing methods. If it is a thick canvas fabric, it is necessary to use acrylic pigments with higher saturation for coloring. This not only makes it less likely to fade after coloring, but also has certain waterproof performance.

For products made of canvas material, it is best to soak them in salt and warm water for about half an hour before washing them for the first time, which can effectively prevent the canvas from fading or dyeing. When washing, it is also necessary to use warm water. Be careful not to use detergent with bleach or fluorescent ingredients. Finally, when drying, place it in a cool place to air dry.

Activated carbon can be placed in canvas fabric to absorb odors, or deodorizers can be purchased and sprayed directly onto the canvas to remove odors.

The editor of MaiGou believes that the answer to this question still depends on what products we need. For example, if we want to buy bags, tents and other products, canvas with waterproof performance is definitely better. If we need to buy clothing or bags, I prefer Oxford cloth because its fabric is softer and more comfortable.
