The basics This is a great tool to have on hand when waxing up your fabrics.  The Uses Once wax has been applied to the fabric, use the flat side of the tool to help press the wax deeper into the fabric to help create a better seal. The pointed edges of the tool can be used to remove any excess wax that may have accumulated in seams.  The pro tip Waxed fabrics typically develop creases over time. It's a matter of preference, but if you wish to remove these creases, you can do so easily by gently heating the fabric with a hair dryer, and using this tool to smooth the wax back into the fabric.
