Better than Nikwax Image: 5 Stars

recently tried refurbishing two old raincoats. Nikwax on a Patagonia coat (their recommendation) and Granger's on a Marmot coat (again the manufacturer's recommendation. The Granger's worked a bit better water beading much more convincingly than it did on the Nikwax treated coat.

Cleaner -- would pass and wash in DWR restorer works Image: 4 Stars

As far as I know normal clothes detergent will work just as well on all except camo that need detergents without brighteners. In fact a Gore's phone line said they didn't know any advantage in using "special detergent for gore-tex." The DWR restorer worked very well on tight weaved synthetics (>9 weaves per sq. mm) even non-gore-tex fabrics. On less tight weaved (4 cross per mm on PE/PA blend fabric gore-tex) the DWR restorer helped but fabrics still wetted-out with lots of water. The washin DWR restore was extended by soaking into only the outsurface instead of a complete soak of inner and outter surfaces. The tight weave didn't need ironing but ironing did help on the coarser weaved fabric.

This product fully restored the jacket that I ruined with regular detergent and softener. I highly reccommend this product.

great re-waterproofing system. allowed me to not buy a new rain coat for a while longer and is prolonging the life of my newer rain gear. the UV spray-on product works well too
