## Description

High performance waterproofer designed to enhance performance and revitalize the breathability of waterproof clothing, keeping you warmer and drier

Review: Brings Your Gear Back to Life - I've tried several DWR restoration products over the years, and Nikwax TX.Direct Spray-On is the one I keep coming back to because it simply works. I recently used it on my Rab waterproof shell, which had started to wet out after many miles in rain, wind, and regular use. The membrane was still performing, but the outer fabric was absorbing water instead of beading it off. After cleaning the jacket and applying the spray evenly, the difference was immediately noticeable. Easy to Apply The spray bottle gives good control, allowing me to treat only the exterior fabric where it's needed. I paid a little extra attention to the shoulders, hood, cuffs, and upper back—areas that see the most abrasion from backpack straps and constant exposure to the weather. Real Performance on the Trail Once the treatment had dried, I tested the jacket on several hikes in wet conditions. Water beaded up again and rolled off the surface instead of soaking into the face fabric. The jacket stayed lighter during prolonged rain, dried faster afterward, and remained noticeably more comfortable throughout the day. What I appreciate most is that it restores water repellency without compromising breathability. That's especially important during long climbs, where moisture from the inside can become just as uncomfortable as rain from the outside. Extends the Life of Good Gear Quality shells from brands like Rab are built to last for years, but even the best DWR finish eventually wears off. Rather than replacing an expensive jacket, this treatment restores the performance it was designed to have. For me, it's become part of regular gear maintenance, just like cleaning boots or checking trekking poles before a trip. Final Thoughts If your waterproof jacket is still structurally sound but the outer fabric is wetting out, I highly recommend giving Nikwax TX.Direct Spray-On a try before considering a replacement. It's easy to use, economical, and restores the water repellency that makes a good shell perform the way it should. For anyone who spends serious time in the mountains, it's one of those maintenance products that's worth keeping on the shelf.
Review: Water based waterproofing for cloth material. - No fragrance or strong oder, easy to spay on clean material for waterproof, like down filled coats. No noticeable residue on material following instructions. Look normal in appearance. Durable held up in winter.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does this compare to their "wash-in" version?  I assume it would be more economical since it's not being diluted by a bunch of water?**
A: Actually just the opposite... the Spray-On variety is simply a watered down version of the Wash-in, which means you are paying for a diluted product.

I have had great results making my own Spray-in solution by using 1/3 Wash-in product and 2/3 water in my own spray bottle.

**Q: Can you spray it on a dry garment?**
A: Spraying this on a dry (oops!) 100% polyester coat resulted in terrible spotting stains. Any ideas how to remove the stains? I've tried baking soda, vinegar, stain remover, etc. and the coat has been washed over three times. If anything, the spots look worse. I've ruined a brand new coat by forgetting to apply it to WET fabrics!

**Q: if you run out of the small spray bottle and wanted to refill, can the wash in work or should just buy a new bottle and spayer?**
A: In a pinch, the wash in could work to refill the spray bottle but the sprayis a different formulation designed to work better as a spray.

**Q: Can this work on a polyester shower curtain ? If so, would it have to be applied often?**
A: Used it on my London Fog raincoat (polyester).  Not a petro-solvent vehicle; water soluble.  So, no problem.  Has a chemical smell for a few days as it dries and sets.  Goes away in about 4 days. No discoloration.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Water based waterproofing for cloth material.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It does its job, but only halfway
*by D***D on May 11, 2025*

I would say that this product do its job, but you might need more than 1 and even 2 applies if you want to cover a whole jacket for example. I made sure to follow the instructions but still there are some spots that it did not cover. I made a second apply to those spot missing the product and still not waterproof. Consider getting a couple of spray bottles and apply a few times until every spot is waterproof.
