Reviewed by Timber from Northeast on Friday, May 03, 2013I purchased a Red Ledge Rain Jacket from Sierra Trading Post a few years back. Whne new, I marveled at how it beaded up rain and slid off the jacket. After a a couple of years of wear the rain simply soaked into the jacket. So I got both the Nikwax Tech Wash and the Nikwax Wash-In TX Direct Waterproofing thinking I could once again get water to bead up and slide off. The wash did a very nice job of cleaning the jacket. And I followed directions carefully, even calling Nikwax to review and clarify treatment processes. The TX Direct Waterproofing did not re-waterproof my garment and I can only think that I will have to try some other product to restore waterproofing. I had high hopes, but was disapointed with the Waterproofing.

Reviewed by Benny the road biker from North Carolina on Tuesday, April 16, 2013It was time to give the North Face jacket and the Columbia pants some attention. I washed my ski pants and jacket in the wash with Woolite. I then used the TX Direct waterproofing. I followed the directions given by the representative from Sierra Trading Post on YouTube. Well, it really did the job on my ski garments. When I tested my jacket and pants for repellency it was like water off a duck's back. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to prolong the life of their snow garments!

Reviewed by Boxer from Pleasanton,CA on Tuesday, January 01, 2013Applied product to 5 waterproof shell jackets to revitalize repellency. It worked on Gore-Tex and OmniProof labelled clothing. Takes a little time with a side loading washer but worth it. Used Tech wash on all jackets before running them through with Wash-in TX.

Reviewed by Dry is the new sexy. from Columbus, OH on Tuesday, December 11, 2012The comments apply to the combination of Nikwax wash and waterproofing which are sparate purchases as the products were used in sequence without drying the garments. I have a front loading washer and followed the directions using the amounts specified on the bottle. This is way too much! The wash cycle was a solid volume of foam. You could not even hear or see the clothes sloshing around. Next batch I cut back the amount by at least half and doubled the amount of garments specified. The water proofing results are indistinguishable. Once waterlogged my rain gear now beads water. I have not tested the garments in actual field conditions in a deluge. It was easy and worth it to get renewed performance in well used gear.
