      @Aetas:

      That reminds me of the deers appearing, during waxing a N1-H Deck Jacket.
      Seee video on page 3.

      Weatherproofing IHM-03 Whipcord Deck Jacket!

      WAX:
      The N1-H Deck Jacket is lined with reprocessed wool blanket.
      The interlayer is an original 1940’s US Navy issued gear feature, a cotton ‘organdy’ wax coated layer, for wind proofing.
      So during wax progress, wax will not concentrate into the lining. But you have to take care of the temperature.

      The IHM-03 has an additional interlining for increased wind resistance.
      Before waxing , I would ask MR. G what material specs the interlining has.
      I love my Babour Jackets. But have to retreat them once a year. Otherwise little holes appear in the folds.
      I would prefer Fjäll Raven Wax. It´s "lighter" and not as sticky then Babour wax. It´s a piece of beeswax, normally used for a cotton/polyester Mix.

      SPRAY:
      Granger's XT Waterproofer or Granger's Fabsil Gold (with silicone) work well on cotton.

      Best for me: Nikwax Cotton Proof
      Not wash it in, spray it on the wet Deck Jacket and let it dry.
      Still breathable, not to see and not to smell.

      Please Gil, give us some more information about the interlining.

                I will start a new thread, the Alpaca lined version is IHM-04

                    The IHM-04 (as they are now called, due to the different lining), will be here Mon or Tues.  I have just tracked the shipment and it has not left Narita yet….

                        They are due to arrive today,  I will do my best to get them up today, but our first priority has to be to fulfil orders, so getting them on the site, may slip till tomorrow.

                                    The navy looks like a very dark petrol (on my screen at least)…very nice.
