What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Easy to use, simple instructions. Does what it says on the tin. I always use nikwax as it is a tried and trusted make.
It is definitely worthwhile investing in this product and i have no hesitation in recommending it. I've used these product for well over a year now, they are the best at what they do. Be careful to rinse them thoroughly though, then, wash in the tx.
Cons
It seems to work for some people on some material but hasn’t worked at all on any of my gear.

Not cheap, but well worth the price.

I have used on waterproof l coats pnly use on fabrics that are still good as will not work if items have lost their waterproof coating.
Competitiveness
Used for dry suit and kayaking cags as well as usual paramo and goretex products.
I bought a large size in each when i could have got smaller but at least they’ll last me a long time.
