mike rousseau Posted October 6, 2012 Report Posted October 6, 2012 So I ended up getting the nikwax kit to clean gore tex as well as treat it with repellant.... You get 2 different bottles... One with a cleaner and one with a water repellant.... Applied it today I tried pouring water on my suit in the basement.... and it practically bounced off my suit.... So far so good.... Suit looks brand new again...
msp Posted October 6, 2012 Report Posted October 6, 2012 I have been thinking of doing the same thing. Where can I purchase nikwax ?
Fisherman Posted October 6, 2012 Report Posted October 6, 2012 Nikwax is definitely good stuff. I use the stuff for winter boots, apply twice a year, no leaks and the leather doesn't suffer from road salt.
mike rousseau Posted October 6, 2012 Author Report Posted October 6, 2012 I bought the kit containing both bottles you need for $19.99 I believe... Ordered from Cabelas...
SirCranksalot Posted October 6, 2012 Report Posted October 6, 2012 I have been thinking of doing the same thing. Where can I purchase nikwax ? At an outdoor store. I bought mine at Sojourn in Barrie.
blue pickeral Posted October 7, 2012 Report Posted October 7, 2012 Mountain Equipment Coop sells it. Also has the product for down filled coats. If cleaning a down filled coat, a tennis ball or hackey sack put in the dryer with the coat fluffs up the feathers.
