I have heard about it before so I picked some up the other day and gave it a try. First you have to use their cleaner, since they say normal detergent actually ruins original waterproofing. Makes sense since detergent is actually pretty harsh stuff. Then you wash it again with the waterproofing stuff. This all takes place in a washing machine, they have spray on stuff but this sounded easier. Then you take it out of the washer and can either let it air dry or dry it in the dryer which actually helps the waterproofing set in better.
I only tried it because I noticed my sessions pant from last year started to wet through on occasion last year, my jacket did as well. I cant say how they will handle in the snow but I wore my jacket out today and it has been pouring here in upstate, ny and the water just beaded off my jacket like it had a coat of wax on it.
Well I will see how well it works in a few weeks.
Has anyone else tried this stuff or anything like it?
By the way it cost $20 for one bottle of cleaner and a bottle of the waterproofing stuff, i bought an extra bottle of the water proofing stuff for $10 because the cleaner can clean up to 6 gaments but the waterproofer bottle is only good for 2-3.
