I intended to make my new cotton cushion covers water-resistant. In the instructions on the bottle it mentions the amount of liquid per "item", but not the weight of the item. The item could be a jacket or, as in this case, a small cushion cover so this is not very clear. On the first unsuccessful attempt (machine washed as per instructions) I may have used too little of the liquid. On the second attempt I used a lot more, but it made no difference to the fabric. On the 3rd attempt I applied the liquid in a bowl (as per instructions for hand wash) but at the end of this process, the covers were still not water-resistant. By then the bottle was all used up and so was my patience. I have used this product in the past on jackets, with somewhat mixed results, so in my mind it is not a great product. There seems to be nothing else on the market though.Read full review

bought this wo provide some water resistance to two pairs of cotton motercycle jeans. Whilst i relaise this was not going to make the jeans waterproof despite the claims it made absolutely no difference to the jeans. I followed the instructions including the NiKWAX pre wash and allowed these to dry naturally on a clothes hanger and the jeans absorbed water just as normal. Ie it made no difference to the jeans at all. Small down pour on my two week riding holiday ended up with me being so wet that the water went through the jeans down my legs and into my boots. This is what it said it would protect me from so claims are completely false in my opinion. Normal water prrof overtrouseres were purchasded and never had the problem again. Save your money and do the same.

Does exactly what it says. In the recent deluge of rain my cotton Fjällraven has held out amazingly
