I had a few older North Face Hyvent shells to treat. I live here on the PNW coast of WA, so I need good performing rainwear as I trail run in the rain a few times a week. I had used the scotch guard spray in the past but still got so wet through in spots.....So this product.. I used a 5 gallon bucket with 2 gallons of water in it to make it really concentrated...poured in the entire bottle and stirred it up. I then put my two coats into the mix and made sure all was wet and covered. I let them sit for about an hour and then drained the excess water back into the bucket to reuse for two more coats. That bottle treated 4 items for me. They hung outside for about 2 hours to get rid of the dripping water, then a quick spin in the washer(no water just a spin cycle) to remove a little more water and then they went into the dryer on low for abut 30 minutes. I did not wat to over dry them in the dryer so then I took the slightly damp coats out and let them dry totally in my basement x1 day with a fan blowing on them. No smell from not doing a water rinse and they now shed water like they were new. Much easier than putting them in the washer I think. It takes a little effort and time but it was money well spent. btw I did not pre wash them with the Nikwax. They were pretty clean, no mud but a few dirty spots. I did not care if they looked brand new, just worked in the rain. These were used coats I got online for $30 each...used to be $$250 shells new...and they were 20 plus years old. I wear them 5 days a week when I am on a trail run with a pack. Final verdict is Nikwax is easier than scotch guard, better coverage, no smell, and works out to about $4 per coat....a pretty good deal. Read more

In order for this to work, your clothes have to be completely dirt free. Wash as recommended. Then dry as recommended. Your clothes are NOT WATER PROOF. they are water resistant. Goretex is not WATER PROOF. it's water resistant. Only pvc rain gear is WATER PROOF. now pay attention, if your gear is dirty or dusty. That stuff absorbs water and will go thru the Goretex. If Goretex let's sweat out, it will let rain in. The Nik wax creates a water repellant shield. So keep your gear clean Read more

I used a 5 gallon bucket with 2 gallons of water in it to make it really concentrated...poured in the entire bottle and stirred it up. I then put my two coats into the mix and made sure all was wet and covered. I let them sit for about an hour and then drained the excess water back into the bucket to reuse for two more coats. That bottle treated 4 items for me. They hung outside for about 2 hours to get rid of the dripping water, then a quick spin in the washer(no water just a spin cycle) to remove a little more water and then they went into the dryer on low for abut 30 minutes. I did not wat to over dry them in the dryer so then I took the slightly damp coats out and let them dry totally in my basement x1 day with a fan blowing on them. No smell from not doing a water rinse and they now shed water like they were new. Much easier than putting them in the washer I think. It takes a little effort and time but it was money well spent. btw I did not pre wash them with the Nikwax. They were pretty clean, no mud but a few dirty spots. I did not care if they looked brand new, just worked in the rain. These were used coats I got online for $30 each...used to be $$250 shells new...and they were 20 plus years old. I wear them 5 days a week when I am on a trail run with a pack. Final verdict is Nikwax is easier than scotch guard, better coverage, no smell, and works out to about $4 per coat....a pretty good deal. Read more",
