I’m trying to clean my bib&brace with this stuff but when it comes to drying it my bib & brace label says not to tumble dry so how will the Dwr be activated

Hi, I just bought the spray and sprayed my windbreaker jacket. Once the jacket has dried would it hurt to put a second layer on the jacket to give it extra extra protection or should one good layer do the trick?

1 layer works great for me but depends on the jacket i guess

Can I spray this to dry garments? I've washed it all and dried and just realised it needs to be damp 🤦‍♀️ so on dry ok? Thanks

[@JoutarouKuujou1]

yes

[@krodkrod8132]

Can you spray this on a fleece?

[@gabriellevin8596]

No!

The product would not spray. The liquid inside was chunky. I shook the bottle for at least 5 minutes and still chunky.

A complete waste of time and money. Applied on my jackets: no improvement at all. When DWR is gone the only smart way is to buy a new jacket.

When was the last time you reproofed?

[@LaOwlett]

If you neglected to maintain your gear through proper washings and reproofing, you're going to have to put more effort into repelling water than this. I would recommend you bring it to a drycleaner. Otherwise you're probably going to have to use both a wash in, and a direct spray afterwards.
What do you mean "when the dwr is all gone"? DWR's aren't secret or proprietary. These sprays are no different than the factory treatments, and will last about the same amount of time. Grangers and Nikwax are both Durable Water Repellants. It's better to take care of your stuff than to replace it. That means buying special tech washes, and retreating every time you see it starting to wet out. If it's a gore-tex jacket which can wet out without making you wet, you still need to reproof it once you notice the nylon exterior is absorbing water.

Utter tosh

Just applied it to my 2 year old jacket and it's waterproof is as good if not better than when new
