  • -  The No.1 easy to use, safe, high performance wash in waterproofing for wet weather clothing

    -  Adds Durable Water Repellency and revives breathability - in a washing machine

    -  Breathable waterproof garments are most likely to get sweaty and wet inside when used in damp or wet 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.

    -  It will eventually wear off and need to be renewed with Nikwax TX.Direct®.

    -  Anyone who is active outside in damp or wet conditions will benefit from breathable waterproof clothing.

    -  Whether you’re a mountaineer, cyclist, dog walker, or you work outside as a farmer or surveyor, you will need good raingear

    -  Nikwax TX.Direct® Wash-In is the market leader. It is easy and quick to apply in a washing machine, and its highly Durable Water Repellency (DWR) develops on air drying.

    -  The washing machine application ensures that the treatment goes right through the garment, treating seams, tapes and cords, as well as the fabric.

    -  Also, as the need for tumble drying is removed, this saves energy and protects more vulnerable, older, garments from heat. Nikwax TX.Direct® Wash-In has been specifically designed and optimised for breathable waterproof garments; it leaves a flexible water repellent treatment on individual fibres allowing moisture vapour to pass through, maintaining breathability.

    -  Nikwax takes great care to minimise the effect of Nikwax products on the environment and on you, the consumer.

    -  Nikwax waterproofing products are WaterBased, non-aerosol, non-flammable, non-hazardous and environmentally friendly.

    -  They contain no harmful solvents or volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and are completely free of fluorocarbons (which have been shown to be persistent in the environment and have been associated with serious health issues).

     

     

    For best results remove all non-washable parts and always clean item(s) first with Nikwax Tech Wash® in a separate wash cycle. No need to dry item(s) before waterproofing.

    • Remove all detergent build up from the detergent dispenser.
    • Place maximum of 2 clean garments in washing machine.
    • Use 100ml per garment.
    • Run 30°C synthetic cycle and slow spin.

    Do not machine-wash garments if taped seams have become dislodged.*
    To maintain waterproofing always wash with Nikwax Tech Wash®. Do not use detergents.

    *Faulty taped seams sometimes become detached on old or worn garments. They can be re-stuck using a proprietary clear glue after waterproofing and drying.

    By Hand

    Use gloves (to avoid waterproofing your hands!).

    -  Immerse 1 clean garment in 6L of hand-hot water in a bowl or sink.

    -  Add 50ml of TX.Direct®.

    -  Agitate to mix, leave to soak for 5-10 minutes, then agitate thoroughly.

    -  Rinse with cold water until water runs clear.

    Air dry or tumble dry on a low setting if care label allows.
