fabrics should not be machined washed.<\/p>\n<p>The vibration of the washing machine and strong detergents can peel away the wax coating, reducing its ability to resist water and perhaps harming the fabric.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, it is advised to only spot-clean waxed cotton cloth as required.<\/p>\n<p>Wipe away any dirt or stains with a gentle cloth or brush and if needed, you may also spot-clean
