mike rousseau Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share 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... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msp Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 I have been thinking of doing the same thing. Where can I purchase nikwax ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisherman Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike rousseau Posted October 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 I bought the kit containing both bottles you need for $19.99 I believe... Ordered from Cabelas... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirCranksalot Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue pickeral Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
