TX.Direct Wash-In Waterproofing

Super Artikel. Imprägniert sehr gut in der Waschmaschine

Used it on 2 Gortex Jacket. Very good results thank you.

This is a good product, and easy to use. You do need to do a couple of extra steps to make it bond better. The same as with any and every wash in. After you wash your clothing or pack or tarp, use a couple extra rinses. Then maybe do a couple more, or even just the machine itself. Almost every washer has a small amount of water pooled in it from the last wash. You want to ensure that there is no detergent residue left in the machine or it will make the product less effective. Use a soak cycle if your machine has it, and also if there is an option, lower than normal water level. Just enough to cover your items being treated. A single rinse. Then machine dry on medium if your items can handle it. It's good for helping your waterproof breathable clothing from having the outer lay "wet out," which blocks water vapor from passing through, and it can be used to make a nylon jacket or pack able to withstand light rain for short periods of time.

In order for this to work, your clothes have to be completely dirt free. Wash as recommended. Then dry as recommended. Your clothes are NOT WATER PROOF. they are water resistant. Goretex is not WATER PROOF. it's water resistant. Only pvc rain gear is WATER PROOF. now pay attention, if your gear is dirty or dusty. That stuff absorbs water and will go thru the Goretex. If Goretex let's sweat out, it will let rain in. The Nik wax creates a water repellant shield. So keep your gear clean

Combine this with the tech wash and you've got yourself a great duo! Works amazing for rewaterproofing your gear. Extra rinse cycle always helps too!
