Nikwax TX.Direct Spray-On will breath new life into your water resistant clothing. Add or renew the durable water-repellent finish of your rain gear with Nikwax TX.Direct Spray-On. High-performance waterproofing spray also revives breathability, making it ideal for moisture-wicking fabrics. Simply apply evenly to the fabric's surface and remove any excess with a damp cloth. Application leaves a flexible, water-repellent treatment that allows vapor to pass through. Your raingear could be soaking up water just because it is dirty. First, try cleaning it with Nikwax Tech Wash(R), and if it is fairly new, or recently re-waterproofed, the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) will be revitalized just from cleaning. But, once the garment has been thoroughly worn, you will need to add DWR, using Nikwax TX.Direct(R), after cleaning first with Nikwax Tech Wash(R).
