So, I'm going to attempt to do some waterproofing using non-toxic ingredients... Beeswax, tallow and polymerized linseed oil (heated to a high temperature without oxygen, and safer than "Boiled" linseed oil that contains heavy metals and hardeners). I saw a commercial blend of those ingredients, but I have beeswax and tallow on hand, so I bought the linseed oil from a local hardware store. It should be interesting to see how well it works. Also wondering if just boiled raw linseed would work as well (rather than the polymerized version).
