NikWax Tech Wash effectively cleans wet weather clothing and equipment, reviving breathability and water repellency.

Breathable waterproof garments can start soaking up water because the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) has been compromised by dirt, or because it has been cleaned with a conventional laundry detergent. Dirt attracts water and household detergents leave water attracting (hydrophilic) residues, leading to fabric 'wetting out' in wet or damp conditions. If the outer fabric absorbs water, the garment can lose up to 70% of its breathability. Therefore, the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) on the outer fabric of your jacket must be maintained to ensure comfort.

NikWax Tech Wash will:

  • Remove contaminants - such as dirt and residues left behind by household detergents
  • Revitalise existing Durable Water Repellency (DWR) - protects against rain and condensation
  • Revive breathability - allows moisture vapour to pass through the item

NikWax Tech Wash is the market leader; it has been specifically designed and optimised for breathable waterproof fabrics. It is the safe way to thoroughly clean your waterproof clothing and equipment. Application in a washing machine is quick, easy, and ensures that the whole garment is thoroughly cleaned.

 

HOW TO USE

  • Remove all non-washable parts
  • Use neat Tech Wash and a sponge, or soft nylon brush, to treat stubborn stains before washing

  • Use 150mL in medium/hard water areas and 100mL in soft water areas for 1-2 items, after shaking well
  • Wash according to care label.
