Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Spray on waterproofing for outer fabric. Spot spray for high-wear areas of jackets such as the shoulders and elbows. Waterproofed a jacket that had never been treated.

Run baking soda in washer with extra rinse. Follow directions on bottle. Works great, but be careful of overspray.



Cons

Spray seems to be decently waterproof for one of my gore-tex carhart rain jackets but i cant stand the smell, it smells like * and vinegar. Since i washed them they now have 0 waterproofing and are ruined. Not much better than most consumer waterproof...  Read More

No difference. Kinda disappointing after spending $25. Just another snake oil scam.

Quality


Certainly rejuvenated the waterproof qualities of both, would purchase again.


Great product for renewing the water repellent properties of you rain gear.


*febreeze applied 12 hours later made apparel almost tolerable to olfactory senses.


It works but beware; if you wash and dry your clothes after you apply it, it will wash away and will no longer work.

Price


The dry cleaners wanted to charge us $50 per coat to clean and waterproof.


So it works out a bit pricier than i would have wished.

    Arcteryx jackets are great but without the nikwax i believe they would have soaked through by the end of the day
