    Thank you for the info. I’ve got the exact same jacket. Also bought it second -hand and it’s just the best jacket I’ve got. Lovely thing and it keeps you dry throughout throughout winter and spring while looking cool as feck.

    I used to use a spray wax on my old Barbur jacket which worked really well. Looking forward to meeting you at the weekend.👍

    This takes me back John tbh , like the Silver Fox i used to spray wax on my jacket the only thing is they do get heavy , take care & ride safe

    Great video, John. Nice jackets, those Merlin ones. I've got an Oxford Hardy absolutely solid jacket.

      I also have an Oxford hardy jacket. Have you tried re waxing it?
      I’m considering trying to.

      @Mark Thompson I haven't no, I'd be tempted to do it with a spray if I can as I find the heated wax method a bit laborious.

      I’ve a Oxford hardy jacket. Use barbor thornproof wax and then hairdryer it. Leave about 2-3 days to hang dry and it’s seen some severe weather and kept me warm and dry. Love the Oxford hardy as an everyday jacket even off the bike in town jacket

    brill info vid m8 👍 very nice to hear that no rain gets through the jacket, maybe need one myself as i use the Himmy for work in all weathers 🤣
    I have a pair of Richa over trousers and NOTHING gets through them but the jacket is only 80% lol 😄

    Hi! When you say you wish you had a bigger tin. Do you mean you didn't have enough wax to do the job properly, or was it that the tin being so small was a pain to use? I'm just about to do the very same job and I only bought 1 tin. Cheers!!

    • @johnpawson7400

      1 tin will do it, spread it all out evenly. If you put more on it will be greasy.
