Waxed Garment Clean & Prepare — Stages 1 + 2
Clean & Prepare — Stages 1 + 2 Professionally clean and prepare your waxed garment for restoration. Over time, dirt, grime, old wax, oils, stains and other contaminants can build up throughout a well-worn waxed garment. The Clean & Prepare service combines Stages 1 + 2 of the Artisan’s Son Garment Restoration Process, providing a thorough clean of both the outer shell and inner garment before further treatment. This service is ideal for garments that require cleaning and preparation before re-waxing. What Does Clean & Prepare Include? 1 Outer Garment Cleaning & De-Waxing The outer shell is carefully hand-cleaned to remove accumulated surface dirt, grime, old wax, oils and contaminants. Our specialist cleaning process is designed specifically for waxed cotton, canvas and oilskin fabrics. No solvents are used. Solvents can damage or weaken waxed fabrics and are therefore not used in our cleaning process. 2 Inner Garment Cleaning The inner lining is carefully spot-treated for stains before being cleaned and deodorised. This provides a thorough clean of the unwaxed interior without damaging the waxed outer shell. The result is a cleaner, fresher garment that is properly prepared for further restoration. The 5-Stage Garment Restoration Process Our complete restoration system is designed to clean, restore, protect and finish your garment. 1 Outer Garment Cleaning & De-Waxing The outer shell is carefully hand-cleaned to remove old waxes, oils and accumulated surface contaminants. 2 Inner Garment Cleaning The inner lining is spot-treated for stains, then cleaned and deodorised without damaging the waxed outer shell. 3 Whole Garment Mould, Bacteria & Odour Treatment The entire garment is treated to address mould, bacteria and persistent odours throughout both the outer shell and inner lining. Stage 3 is only available as part of the Stage 5 Complete Garment Restoration treatment. 4 Garment Re-Waxing 2–3 coats of Artisan’s Son Premium Wax-Based Fabric Wax are applied by hand to restore water resistance and weather protection. The wax is heat-treated to encourage even penetration throughout the outer fabric. 5 Finishing & Quality Assurance The garment receives a detailed final inspection and hand finishing. Excess wax is removed from buttons, collars, zippers and other details, while the overall finish, protection and presentation are checked before final quality assurance sign-off.
