Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The product works perfectly as advertised. Buy it, follow the instructions. Very happy with this and will purchase again.

Bac-out is a great odor remover to use with the technical wash version of nikwax. Used the tech wash first, let dry, and sprayed on jacket and pants.

I’ve been soaked to the bone too many times. Treated my rucksack. There is some lost, but it’s negligible.



Cons

No noticeable water repellency. Zero waterpoofing protection to speak of.

Brand is usually top notch, but this product doesn't cut it. The item is not refundable. I suspect my expectations for this product were too high based on the advertisement.

The packaging is safe and it didn’t create any mess like others
