Abstract:
The embodiments herein provide a roll-on applicator designed to waterproof leather products such as boots, gloves, and more. The applicator discharges a non-liquid wax material through a dispenser and directly applies the non-liquid wax material to a leather product for protection. The applicator avoids penetration of rainwater, mud and other wet debris into the leather products and leaking onto clothing garments or skin of the user. The applicator is very compact and portable thereby enabling a packing of the applicator conveniently into a backpack, hiking pack, in a pocket, and more, due to small size. The applicator saves extensive time and frustration of the user when compared to dealing with bulky and difficult-to-use waterproof applicators.

Claim (Index 11):
A method for applying a water proofing layer or coating of non-liquid wax with a compact and portable water proofing applicator device, and wherein the method comprises:\n opening a cap provided in the applicator by performing a pull-out action; rolling out a container filled with a non-liquid wax from a casing of the applicator device by rotating a roller mechanism, and wherein the container filled with a non-liquid wax is arranged inside a hollow cavity in the casing of the applicator device, and wherein the roller mechanism is provided at the bottom end of the casing and wherein the roller is mechanism is connected to a bottom end of the container to move the container in an upward direction or downward direction, when the roller mechanism is rotated in a clock wise direction or in a counter clockwise direction; applying the non-liquid wax over a product to be water proofed by discharging the non-liquid wax through a roll-on applicator mechanism to form a water proofing layer or coating of non-liquid wax over the product, and wherein the roll-on applicator mechanism is provided on top of the casing to apply a layer or a coating of non-liquid wax over a product to be water proofed to form a water proofing layer on the product, and wherein the non-liquid wax is configured to form the water proofing layer on the product, when the applicator mechanism is rolled or applied or rubbed on a surface of the product ; rotating back the roller mechanism inside the casing after completion of a non-liquid wax application; and placing and sliding back the cap over the casing for protecting the non-liquid wax when applicator is not in use.
