FAQ
Why is my new Cover Cloth jacket a different shade of green than my older
jacket?
Each dye lot accepts dyes to a different degree, depending on fiber variations,
harvest time, and processing. We feel that the difference you are seeing is an
acceptable color range for our Cover Cloth.
My new Oil Finish Cover Cloth garment feels
very "wet" to the touch. Should I worry about the Oil Finish coming off and
staining my clothes?
Oil Finish Cover Cloth often does feel more "wet" to the touch than Oil Finish
Tin Cloth, especially when brand new. Being a lighter weight fabric than Tin
Cloth, Cover Cloth cannot absorb as much Oil Finish during the treatment
process. This leaves some of the Oil Finish sitting on the surface, giving it a
"wet" feel.
Over time, Cover Cloth will lose the "wet" feel, as some of the Oil Finish
evaporates. If the Oil Finish stains your clothes, you can easily remove it by
machine washing or dry cleaning.
Which one of your Oil Finish fabrics is the most water repellent?
Of the three, Oil Finish Cover Cloth and Oil Finish Shelter Cloth are the most
water repellent, because they are both more tightly woven than Oil Finish Tin
Cloth. The tight weave contributes to the water repellency.
My Cover Cloth garment smells pretty bad
from being stuffed in a damp corner of my basement over the summer. Is there
anything that I can do to get rid of the smell?
Our first thought is to air out the garment by hanging it up for a day or two in
some fresh air. If that doesn`t work, you`re probably stuck with the smell.
Neither machine washing nor dry cleaning is going to give you a completely
satisfactory result, so we advise against those methods.
Filson.... "Might as well have the best!"
