About this rope
Many practitioners choose to treat their jute rope with a blend of camellia oil (a.k.a. tsubaki oil) and wax, and our paste makes this task quick and easy.
Application is simple: you can either use your hands as all components are cosmetic grade, or using an included microfibre cloth.
Our Rope Goo helps to stop jute fibres from shedding, extending the life and enhancing the feel of your rope. It's especially beneficial for dye-treated jute, providing a wax barrier to lock in moisture.
Our rope goo contains:
- 100% pure cold-pressed camellia oil
- Pure beeswax
- 150ml tin

Care & storage
Surface fuzz is normal. New jute develops a layer of fine fuzz. Some people singe this off; you can also brush it off with a coir brush, or just allow it to shed naturally with use. It's part of the breaking-in phase every jute rope goes through and not a defect.
Keep it dry. Jute is a natural fibre doesn't love being damp. If you can, we recommend airing your ropes out after use by hanging them. If your ropes do get wet you'll need to hang them under tension.
Re-oil when it dries out. Over time and use, jute loses some of the oils and will start to feel stiff and brittle. Re-treat the ropes with a jute-suitable oil (camellia/tsubaki oil is standard, jojoba oil is also very popular). How often you'll need to treat your ropes depends on how often you use it, whether it's used on skin or clothing and also the climate.
