ARCAFABRIC WATER AND OIL REPELLENT FOR TEXTILES Instructions for use
Application
- Apply on new or clean fabric in a well ventilated area.
- Shake the applicator to mix well before applying.
- In order to test the colour fastness and any affect ARCAFABRIC will have on your material, we recommend that you apply a small amount on less visible part of the article to be treated (inside, hem, etc.) and allow it to dry before applying on the entire surface. Under normal conditions, there should be no change in colour and aspect of the material.
- Brush on ARCAFABRIC regularly over the entire surface.
- Do not wipe or towel the material to dry.
- Let dry 4 hours.
- Pour a drop of water onto the fabric. If the water pearls up and does not penetrate the fabric, one application is sufficient. If not, renew the application.
Tools
Brush, roller.

between applications: 1 to 3 hours (the time will vary depending on the ambient temperature and relative humidity.
OPTIMUM PROTECTION IS REACHED 7 DAYS AFTER APPLICATION. During this 7-day period, avoid washing the material. The fabric can then be washed under normal conditions at temperatures of less than 50°C.
