Not Effective in Restoring Waterproofing

As A result of using this product, I found that it did not effectively restore the waterproofing of my gear. Despite following the instructions carefully, my jacket still let in water during a rainy hike. The only positive was that the cleaning solution did remove some stubborn stains .Overall, I would not recommend this product for restoring waterproofing on outdoor gear..

Pros
  • Effectively cleans and restores the waterproofing of hardshell outdoor gear.
Cons
  • Slightly pricier than other cleaning and waterproofing products on the market.

Waterproofing Agent

I have an ultralight down jacket that is not waterproof at all. Before purchasing this product I checked everything to see if it was waterproof for something that wasn't waterproof yet. The answer is yes! I don't know how long it will take. I need to update later. Attached are photos showing before and after. Photo 1 shows a pre-treated dry jacket. Photo 2 after spraying with water. In photos 3 and 4 after you have rubbed the jacket with water and then dried it with a towel. You will see that…

Pros
  • Water Treatment Chemicals
Cons
  • Crumpled Packaging
