Waxed camera bags are incredibly cool
both in look and feel, but they’re not exactly cheap. They’ll run
you upwards of $ 100, which is a bit much to spend if you already have
a nice canvas bag. Conveniently enough, DIY Photography has put up a
tutorial on how to turn your existing bag into a waxed bag. The
secret, as you may have guessed, is wax.
The process is actually fairly simple.
Start by melting wax in a double boiler. After that, you’ll go ahead
and apply the wax to your bag using a brush and let it cool. Once
the wax is on there, it’s time to bake it into the fabric using a
dryer, a heat gun or even a hair dryer. 15-30 minutes later, your
bag is ready to go.
