Can I machine wash my jacket?
Most waterproof breathable jackets are machine washable but always read the care label first. Nikwax supports the use of machine washing with its products to provide fast, effective and even application.
Will using Nikwax products in a machine wash damage my washing machine?
No. Nikwax products have been tested by leading manufacturers and no harm or damage has ever been caused to washing machines or their components. Nikwax is safe for septic tanks and other non-mains drainage systems.
How often do I need to treat a garment or item of gear with a Nikwax proofing product?
Items that are properly treated (cleaned and proofed with Nikwax) will withstand 4 to 6 washes. For an average use of outdoor clothing we recommend that you wash and re-proof your gear at least once a year.
What are the advantages to using Nikwax TX.Direct wash-in instead of TX.Direct spray-on?
Using Wash-in means the clothing will be evenly coated and the proofer will reach hard to get to places. Using Spray-on can be useful as you can target specific areas of the jacket that need waterproofing anytime, anywhere.
Do Nikwax treatments change the appearance of footwear?
As with all other treatments, Nikwax Waterproofing treatments may slightly darken light or unusual coloured leather or fabric. However, our footwear range is specially formulated to minimise any change in colour or texture of the leather or fabric.
