Don’t throw your raincoat out if it doesn’t work. Do this instead ☔️

Waterproofing your gear is the best way to add life and longevity into outdoor products.
I recommend using a waterproofing spray on shoes, jackets and pants you wear in rainy or wet conditions once per year.

Thanks! I've had a hard time finding a good spray for my shoes. Then I found spraying my feet too is the key.

[dwells]

Loved the way you looked at your imaginary watch!😆

[stubinski]

Sound good, I am going to try this on my orange reflective snow blowing coat and pants

[manysigns]

Cool . I get the quart(?) size that is made to put in the washer with the items . I then add a couple gallons of water to it in a contractor trash bag, toss in my item, carefully expel the air, make off the top of the bag with a large rubber band and then walk on it like I'm squishing grapes . This way I can do allot of articles as well as save the solution for the next time .

Does the jacket need to be wet to apply (the directions on the bottle seem to imply that)? Thanks so much!

[goon]

Emphasize more on the top schoulders and back. Thats were the most Rain is hitting your jackets and soaks in after a while. Nice video!

This stuff works best if you spray it in your gear brand new. I apply a new coat once a season and it keeps everything like brand new. I have about 6 rain jackets in rotation and they all got the nikwax after buying the jackets.

Make sure you apply zipper lubricant to all the zippers too. Very important.

I have used this too Alice, great stuff 👍

[edsl]

does it need pre-washed with other nikwax product?
I'll give it a try 😊

[patodwyer]

Nice one Alice
I wish I was living next door to Alice 💕

[StephenDouglas]

How long will it last until it needs to be resprayed?

[JimTimber]

I've just treated my jacket.. seems good to go !

[MrStapleduck]

I was always told not to put it through the dryer, hurts the membrane…Is it better to air dry?

[lynel]

Thanks. Should work on luggage or backpacks (?)

[jeroen.d]

I dont have a dryer. Can I still use the product?

[winniepeg]

Good video 😎
Just bought some off Amazon
Tried loads different types that don't work 😱

[mattbarr]

You need to wet your jacket first otherwise the spray don't work 100% !!

[nicolasmartin]

Beware that if you put Nik Wax on your jacket, the surface of it has to be wet, so it can connect better with the repellent

[philliphernandez]

You have been my inspirations girl GOD bless you always

[alessandroricci]

I used it too, but outside. We're already swimming in a biological timebomb, with nanoparticles of plastic, metals and worse in dvery single cell of our bodies, i don't want to add anything else to the insanity... Drier, another one indispensable things I love avoiding.
