Review: Works Great in a Bucket!! - 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.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used for a down jacket?**
A: DON'T USE IN DOWN! This is ruin your down jacket! The product will clump the down making the insulation uses. Down jackets aren't water proof by nature anyways. This product use made for outerwear shells. Best DWR on the market is used properly.

**Q: Can i use this on huge american cotton flag. i live in oregon and want to protect better.**
A: It will make the flag water proof,  but won't protect it from UV damage

**Q: How many ounces should I use per wash**
A: It is kind of complex, but here you go. For top load machines, 10 fl oz., max of 3 garments.  For a Front loader, 3 fl oz / garment, max of 2 per cycle. for hand wash, 1 garment, 2 fl oz. There are additional instructions on the bottle, for settings of one's machine. Hope this helps. Best regards. Bill

**Q: I have a two-person tent that got stored away wet after its last use two years ago. will this restore its waterproofness after washing with tx.wash?**
A: No.  Use the specific "tent" wash that Nikwax makes.
