The "waxy finish" .... Is that what used to be called "polished cotton" or "polished apple" or somesuch?

it doesn't feel any different from regular fabric though, I do have some stuff that has almost like a waxy finish to it but when I hand washed a small piece the finish came off, has anyone ever seen anything like that?
