Waxed canvas is remarkable durable — it's one of the things that make it such a great material! As such, it shouldn't require as much maintenance as other fabrics. If you would like to wipe it off, you can spot clean with cold water. Don't subject the Helsing to heat as it will strip the wax from the fabric (which can be put back, but it's a labor intensive process!). If you have any questions about the care of your product, please email us at info@volantedesign.us and we'll help you out!
