Read More I washed my carhartt rain gear in this and my carhartt canvas coat prior to using the TX direct wash in waterproofer and it mostly revived the waterproofing and slightly waterproofed my non-waterproof canvas coat, after washing in the tx direct wash in they all might as well be buckets. Needless to say I will be washing my rain gear in this stuff and only this. Atleast bi- monthly if not more often as needed. -

Read More See my similar review for this company's wash-in waterproofing product. Here's a confession… I used to scoff at the idea of having to wash my waterproof/windproof gear with a special cleaner. I didn't believe it was necessary to wash the garments with care. As such, I would simply wash my waterproof/windproof clothing using liquid laundry detergent, and I NEVER treated anything with a waterproofing agent! Later, whenever I wound up in the middle of a rain storm, I would wonder why I always got soaked despite wearing what was supposed to be world-class gear. I now know I was making huge mistakes. I recently gave in and started using this cleaning product before treating my field clothing with the waterproofing agent made by the same company. What a difference! My 10-year-old jacket now looks like its new! To my surprise, it looks absolutely great, and sheds water like an oilskin duster; same goes for all my other gear that I finally started treating. I've learned my lesson. From now on, I'll be using this product on a regular basis. Best of all, it's easy to use. -

Read More This product really works. I have had several Gortex or Gortex type jackets and have had to replace them because the waterproofing disappears after multiple washings. TECH WASH not only cleans but retains the waterproofing of Gortex or like material. I have had the present jacket for 8 years+ that I wear all the time(except when I dress up which is infrequesntly). It still looks like new.
Read More My outdoor store told me I needed to hand wash my tent in this "gentle" soap before re-sealing it, but it dissolved my tent floor's waterproofing to white crumbs and lifted all the factory seam tape! My nice old REI tent that I was trying to make perfect for a friend to borrow is now garbage. BE AWARE that older gear may have silicone-based sealants and SPOT TEST! Filed a product report with Nikwax but they claimed it wasn't their fault, that "time was the enemy." Bogus.
