Natural fibres contain substances with waxy properties that act as protective agents against atmospheric and biological influences. As they are fibres, these substances are eliminated and the friction and absorption characteristics that they provide are lost, resulting in a loss of softness, flexibility and elasticity, making it necessary to re-apply a suitable finish, provided by paraffin wax among others.
