truly water proof
works great on tent fabric and gortex. Easy application, though still get drips to wipe immediately or it shows.

The silent guardian of fresh air
Unexpectedly effective. These absorbers quietly eliminate moisture and musty odors, leaving a subtle lavender scent behind. Excellent for closets, storage rooms, or spaces where airflow is scarce. A simple product that performs its duty with admirable consistency.

TX.Direct Purchase Review
Great vendor experience. The product arrived on time and exactly as described online. I’m pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to apply to my boots and hikers. It went on smoothly, cleaned up without leaving any visible residue, and the water now beads right off. My boots still look like new. Overall, this is a solid product—but make sure you choose the right one for your specific needs. Do a little research before purchasing. I may update this review after I’ve put these boots to extensive use.

Good quality product always follow instructions
I’m told this is a great product unfortunately it would not work for me, my shower pass cycling raincoat is just too old and gone through too many laundry cycle, would not accept repellent, which I am very sad, however, everything that I’ve read on the Internet. I went through the procedure multiple times the cleaning and treatment, unfortunately would not work.. so I bought a new jacket off Amazon for a fraction of the price of the shower pass. Hopefully it will do the job for me.. lesson learned! Do not over launder your raincoat.

Good For Vertical Flooding Conditions
I've tried several of the alternatives to Nikwax products and every single time I keep coming back. Although I have probably a half dozen stories to tell about my experience, I only need to relay one fairly recent story to tell you why I trust this (and the other Nixwax products) for most of my waterproof gear. In 2014, we set out for a month long road trip to Alaska in the middle of summer, planning to tent it all the way up and back. Unbeknownst to us, we made the trek in the wettest summer that pretty much everyone alive could possibly remember, it was wet! For 30 days straight, it rained 27 of them. This wasn't your average drip-a-bit then blow over type of rain. No. It was torrential downfall followed by a downpour followed by a steady drench thereafter. It was an unreal bout of rain, like we were living in a rain cloud for a month. All my gear, including my tent, footprint, rain fly and gear's duffel bags were treated with this stuff or other Nikwax products. It's never a cheap preparation, but in hindsight, it's always worth every penny. Night after night, my aging camping gear and waterproof clothing were pounded from all sides with unrelenting rain, put away wet only to be brought out into more wet. What little breaks in the weather we could get usually dried things out just enough to get wet again a few hours later. We could barely get a break, except for maybe once every 8-10 days or maybe a lucky clearing during setup or teardown of camp. The point? We stayed mostly dry. Our clothes, our sleeping gear, our camp gear. Dry, all of it. Every night. Every storm. It kept one pretty lady awfully happy, and that's no easy feat faced with constant rain! To be certain, some of it was probably technique as I cut my teeth camping in Oregon where you learn how to deal with rain well before you can afford technical preparations. But from one rain master to another, the secret to maintaining technical gear for whatever gets thrown at you is Nikwax. Bottom line, it's proven itself to be my trusted waterproofing material and probably always will be. Is it perfect? No, it's not going to make Goretex out of nylon no matter how you slice it...but it'll be better than pure nylon, for sure. Does it help? Without a doubt. When your gear is starting to see it's age, will it revive it enough to keep it going? Yes, and my 20+ year old used and abused Cascade Designs tent that I'd take anywhere, anytime proves it. Do you need to augment your preparations for rain otherwise? That's probably a good idea, at a minimum a solid seam seal on all rainfly seams and liberal use of tarps, when needed. I've used this stuff for years and that's only the latest reason I keep coming back for more.

Restores waterproof nature of clothing in one application.
The spray was very effective. It restored the waterproof nature of my hunting gear. Provided 100% water protection in one application. Leaves no residue or stickiness. Excellent value for the money.

The Nikwax TX. Direct Spray-On Waterproofing is excellent for revitalizing the properties of your gore tex clothing. Very easy to apply after washing the garments with Nikwax Tech Wash. Nikwax also has an all in one product that both washes and re-waterproofs gore tex garments. However, I've always been an advocate for products that do one thing VERY WELL instead of a combination of things OKAY. That's why I prefer to use a combination of the Nikwax Tech Wash and the spray on waterproofing separately. Furthermore, using the separate spray on waterproofing allows direct application of the product to specific areas of the garment that tend to get wet or exposed to damp/wet more often.
