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?
I wish I knew, it washes out. I know that much for sure, but it feels like table cloth plastic coated stuff prior to washing.
