Nikwax TX. Direct Wash In Waterproofer

Product Information

Add Nikwax Tech Wash. In a top-loading machine, add three full caps (150ml) for 1-3 garments or five full caps (250ml) for 4-6 garments. In a front loader, it’s best to add no more than two garments with two capfuls (100ml) of Tech Wash. Special note: If you live in an area with hard water, toss in an extra capful of Tech Wash. Your raingear could be soaking up water just because it is dirty. First, try cleaning it with Nikwax Tech Wash ®, and if it is fairly new, or recently re-waterproofed, the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) will be revitalised just from cleaning. But, once the garment has been thoroughly worn, you will need to add DWR, using Nikwax TX.Direct ®, after cleaning first with Nikwax Tech Wash ®.

The only waterproofer designed to protect against UV damage and enhance water repellency of all weatherproof textiles. Water based, non-flammable, PFC and aerosol free. View Product Tent & Gear SolarWash ® When we work hard, we sweat. The evaporation of sweat cools us down and keeps us comfortable. But, when it rains we want to avoid getting wet, so we put on waterproof outerwear to keep us dry. The waterproof fabric must allow moisture vapor to pass through it, or 'breathe'; otherwise our sweat cannot evaporate, causing us to overheat and get wet from condensation. For best results remove all non-washable parts and always clean item(s) first with Nikwax Tech Wash® in a separate wash cycle. No need to dry item(s) before waterproofing.

Using the right cleaning product is as important as using the right waterproofing product. Conventional detergents leave behind a thin water-absorbent film on materials, which masks their Durable Water Repellency (DWR). Therefore, always clean your waterproof garments with Nikwax Tech Wash ®. Remember that dirt itself works against DWR, so regular cleaning will enhance performance. I was a great feeling and gave peace of mind, knowing I was not only dry inside the clothing, but the outer was only marginally damp.
