Usage

Remove all non-washable parts and clean the garment first in a separate wash using a detergent suitable for membrane clothing, such as Nikwax Tech Wash. Follow the care label instructions for washing. The garment does not need to be dried before waterproofing.

In the Washing Machine

• Shake the bottle well before use
• Remove all detergent residue from the washing machine detergent compartment
• Place a maximum of 2 clean garments in the washing machine
• Use 100 ml / 3.4 fl. oz. of the product per garment
• Run a 30°C synthetic cycle with a slow spin
• Do not machine-wash garments if taped seams have become damaged*
• To maintain waterproofing, always wash with a detergent suitable for membrane clothing – do not use regular detergents

*Faulty taped seams can sometimes detach from old or worn garments. They can be reattached using appropriate products after waterproofing and drying.

By Hand
