AMAZING TRANSFORMATIONS

Welcome to the Amazing Transformations page,

where we display some of our finest work!

 

By this, we mean this page is to demonstrate what we are capable of at Wax Jackets Cleaned.

 

Please look below to see what we mean! 

 

Note that not every jacket is the same. We treat each and every jacket we receive as unique and individual. So while the results on this page are impressive, not EVERY jacket will have the same issues (Different stains, repairs etc.) and therefore could potentially have a drastically different outcome.

We recently received the jacket you see below.

 

Then, we decided to showcase how dramatically the appearance can change after certain stages of our process.

This is how the jacket arrived when we opened the parcel. As you can see, it has seen brighter days!

This is how the jacket looks after cleaning, but before re-waxing.

It's getting there!

This is the jacket after both cleaning and re-waxing. The physical change is so drastic that the jacket looks like a different jacket!

Due to an storing incorrectly in a damp area these jackets were,

as you can see, in a bad state.

 

Besides this, they are brand new!

 

Roughly valued at £400 each!

 

But they are in the right hands!

Some really dirty wax jackets that we can clean.
One sleeve of a dirty waxed jacket which we cleaned and restored.
Two sleeves of a dirty waxed jacket which we cleaned and restored.
The collar / neck area of a really mouldy wax jacket which we serviced.

AS YOU CAN SEE

 

These jackets are looking rather... mistreated.

This is before we work our magic!

The final result from our work, a clean wax jacket.
And the sleeves are like new!

We feel that it is important to mention that these jackets were very smelly. They were moldy, smelly and destined for the bin. Until we got our hands on them, that it. We are fairly certain that no other company would be able to achieve results similar to ours!

 

The results speak for themselves!

If that is not a transformation then we at

Wax Jackets Cleaned don't know what is!

THE PICTURE SHOWS A BEFORE AND AFTER SITUATION THAT WE WERE PRESENTED WITH AT WAX JACKETS CLEANED. 

 

SOME COMPANIES THAT OFFER WAX JACKET CLEANING DON'T CLEAN THE INSIDE OF THE JACKET AS PART OF THEIR STANDARD SERVICE! 

 

AS YOU CAN SEE, THAT IS NOT A PROBLEM AT WAX JACKETS CLEANED!

THE 1964 ISDT WAX JACKET WORN BY JOHNNY GILES, THE ISDT RIDING CHAMPION WITH MORE THAN 13 GOLD MEDALS (WHICH IS MORE THAN ANY OTHER RIDER IN THE HISTORY OF ISDT!)

 

DUE TO BEING STORED INCORRECTLY, YOU CAN SEE THAT THE JACKET LOOKS WORSE FOR WEAR.

 

BUT, A COMMON TREND ON THIS PAGE, WAX JACKETS CLEANED HAVE THE ANSWER!

After we perform our magic, it is like the jacket is new again!

While we don't have anything unique or special to say about this particular jacket, we think that the pictures show the results best!

ANOTHER ISDT JACKET, ALBEIT FROM 1966 THIS TIME. WHILE THE CONDITION IS NOT AS BAD AS THE OTHER ISDT JACKET FEATURED ON THIS PAGE, IT'S CONDITION IS NOT OPTIMAL.

AS USUAL, ANOTHER AMAZING RESTORATION JOB BY

WAX JACKETS CLEANED!

WHEN OUR CUSTOMER CAME IN WITH THEIR JACKET THEY WERE HORRIFIED, CONVINCED THAT THEY WOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO WEAR THEIR BELOVED JACKET DUE TO THE STAINING AND SMELL.

 

BUT THAT'S WHERE WE COME IN!

NATURALLY, THEY WERE OVERJOYED TO SEE THE OUTSTANDING RESULTS FROM

WAX JACKETS CLEANED!

ISDT Jacket before being sent to Barbour, to be returned for no apparent reason.

The jacket you see above this is the jacket worn by Jon Tye, of the RAF team, during the 1968 ISDT in Italy. 

He sent the jacket to Barbour to see what they could do to reinvigorate the life into his jacket. 

 

They held onto the jacket for about 6 weeks, which is the same time we at Wax Jackets Cleaned generally hold your garments for, while we carry out the requested work to the beloved waxed cotton garment in question.

 

However, when he received his jacket back, it looked THE EXACT SAME! Meaning that nothing had been done to it whatsoever! The cherry on top? There was no explanation as to why the jacket "could not be worked on". No phone call, no official letter, nothing.

 

A true shining example of customer service at its peak!

The same ISDT jacket pictured above, only AFTER being sent to Wax Jackets Cleaned, where we communicate with our customers!

We believe that the images show the difference better than any words could. They do say that a picture says 1,000 words!

 

But we do feel that it is important to mention that we also had the jacket for 6 weeks...
