Product Information

Granger’s Wash + Repel Down is easy to use: You just add the liquid to your washing machine’s soap slot using the bottle’s cap as a measuring device. This product has the added benefit of washing and waterproofing at once; it’s a one-step process that only requires running the machine once. After washing, you machine-dry the item on low heat, and Grangers recommends using dryer balls to help fluff the down inside.

Each product was applied to a sectioned-off screen under the wiper sweep – to accelerate wear – that had been clayed and cleaned. Water beading was then monitored over nine weeks. While all work in much the same way, they’re applied in different ways, so we took this into account and ranked them according to effecitveness, price from online sources and also what you get for the price - including extras like a cloth. Verdict Visibility will be your number one priority if applying a rain repellent to a car. In the same way that visibility is no.1 when applying some de-icer. After all, the sole job of a rain repellent is road safety, keeping water from congregating on your windscreen. A good rain repellent will see rain beading straight off the windscreen, leaving the road ahead clear. A poor rain repellent may, however, leave a smear on the glass, particularly in sunny or low-light conditions. This hampers visibility when it’s not raining and is a fairly irritating thing to deal with. Second, invest in a good pair of sunglasses with a tight-fitting frame. They’ll help keep the rain out of your eyes while still allowing you to see clearly. Finally, always carry a cleaning cloth with you so you can wipe away any water that does manage to get on your lenses. Is Water Repellent Coating on Glasses Worth It?Waterproofing sprays aren't just for shoes — you can use them across many products, from clothing to gear to furniture. So if you're planning on waterproofing your shoes, consider what else you might be interested in protecting. That way, you can buy a single spray that covers multiple products. The second most common chemical structure in water repellents is “fluoroalkylsilane,” or “FAS”. This is made with a long chain of carbon and fluorine atoms, and similarly to PDMS, it is non-polar. Compatible – Designed for use on technical fabrics including eVent, NeoShell and GORE-TEX materials; formula is PFOA and PFOS free When waterproofing anything from boots to bags, it's important to read all of the manufacturer's instructions carefully. Some waterproofing sprays dry in under an hour, while other sprays need to be left alone for more than a day before they are affective. Allow the proper time for drying so you don't ruin your gear or find it's too wet to wear when you need to head out for the day.

Droplets are easily eliminated from the driver’s field of vision, improving safety and driving comfort.Some have hydrophobic coatings, which cause water to bead up and roll off the lens. Others have oleophobic coatings, which resist oil and fingerprints. And some glasses even come with self-cleaning coatings that help repel dirt and grime. An exercise in excellent innovation, Soft99 Glaco Roll-On combines the repellent and applicator in one product, a great time saver and a way of ensuring that the glass is fully coated. Nonetheless, the choice of either a bottle or can entirely depend on you. You want to keep the spray can or bottle at least 15 to 20 cm away from the fabric’s surface during application. Additionally, you want to apply a single layer of mist across the entire surface. You may, however, find spray options that require you to apply more than one layer.
