A can of "Scotchgaurd" by "Scotch" brand, should do the trick. On construction sites we would run them through a vat of melted wax, but it gets very messy and difficult to handle. This technique is reserved for the ropes we use to pull big cables {1"+ in dia each a bundles of 4-5 cables} through conduits that usually are full of water. This keeps the water sateration from weighing down the rope adding additional drag/resistance to the cable pull. Scotchgaurd is used to weather treat fabric and probably can be found in that department {fabric}. Good Luck.
No.
The braided rope is better because it is made from nylon or polyester. It can hold heavier weights than a regular rope. It can stretch and some polyesters are waterproof.
For example: Plant cotton. Grow cotton. Sell raw cotton. Take out the seeds, sell seedless cotton. Twist seedless cotton into string, sell string. Twist strings to make rope, sell rope.
Cotton rope can be used for making ladies clothes, fashion accessories, decorations, and its even used in hanging purposes. Although cotton rope can be used for many different things it is not the strongest rope available. If strength is what your looking for please try ropes made out of more durable materials.
Cotton is not naturaly water proof but there are substaces such as grease that may work as waterproofing agents
Yes, it is! Because it is used in making surfer bracelets! Also, waxed leather is waterproof too! :)
natural fibers are wool,cotton,silk
