Used this on a 4 year-old Berghaus 'Aquafoil' breathable/waterproof jacket that had got to the point where the outer layer pretty much soaked water up like normal fabric. Washed as per instructions in non-bio ("kind to baby") laundry detergent and applied Nikwax while still damp. Cursory test indoors showed that it was better but water still soaks in after less than a minute. The amount left in the bottle showed that the estimated coverage on the instructions was bang-on. Used the remainder to re-treat the shoulders and other areas prone to wear or most exposed - I've been out briefly in a light shower and it's pretty obvious the jacket is no more than "showerproof" at best. Bottom line - don't expect miracles from this stuff. Also, note that it has a distinct smell of acetic acid (vinegar), similar to silicone gasket / bathroom sealant which takes quite a while to fade.Read full review

Great little product for topping up the waterproofing on your clothes, especially around the seams. I like Nikwax because it’s supposedly biodegradable. However it does need frequent reproofing because the protection doesn’t last very long, I find I have to use the wash-in and then top up with the spray for optimal results, and even then they’ll only last for a couple of rainy day walks. Like I say great for topping up the protection in those stubborn spots though!

This product is very good and effectively re-waterproofs Goretex and other breathable fabrics. Always buy and use the equivalent Nikwax washing product first, and I always use a Nikwax wash in product first. Spray this on whilst coat us still damp from washing - excellent results and a several coats that are now fully waterproof. I was a little disappointed in respect of the size on the container, as it was smaller than a previous purchase but I think the a similar price - my fault for checking the detail!

used on old jacket which is now waterproof. used most of bottle on it though it states will cover 2 jackets. difficult to use container inverted as it works by pump action. might be better if it was a spray can. good product otherwise. recommended.

Nikwax tx direct spray is easy to use and a great performing waterproofer. " Does what is says on the tin".

Nikwax has totally transformed the rain proofing quality of my favourite outdoors coat. It's transformed it from a sponge to a raincoat. Excellent stuff.

the spray went onto the fabric well enough and there was no discolouration to the material, not sure yet how well it will work when i wear my coat in wet weather conditions and how well it will stand the test of time.

Applied the spray to my ageing Helly Hansen that had lost its waterproof qualities. Water now runs off the surface of the jacket just as it should. Good product
