Hardshell Cleaning & Waterproofing Duo-Pack

For some reason, the cuffs of my winter jackets are always dirty by the end of the season. I mean embarrassingly dirty. These products got my jackets, clean and kept them waterproof.

A must have when adding or cleaning water proof/resistant clothing such as outer wear and hardshell clothing. They also make softshell cleaner roofers as well. My go to for washing ice fishing bibs and rain gear!

This goretex cleaning and waterproofing kit works great and delivers as advertised! I've used this product for 2 snowboarding seasons now and it has waterproofed my shells well, and it's a great cleaner for my shells that I use frequently for hiking and rainy days since I'm someone who likes to wash my jackets after heavy use. the only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is that I've noticed that my shells have softened after 2-3 washes and this is the only product I use to wash my goretex shells. It does no harm to the jackets, but it just surprised me with how it turned my shells somewhat softer after using this product.

I was scared to buy it and use these two on my $200+ The North Face Gore-tex, BUT everything went well!! 1.It does NOT smell great, it’s not tour regular Persil type of wash, but my jacket got cleaned really well. Ao u will have to use 50% of the Wash bottle in Top Load machine, just to keep in mind. 2.After wash you will have to use 100% of the DWR wash-in solution….but technically it should last for While and u will be able to reactivate it…. After wash and good drying DWR is fully restored !

Best for cleaning outdoor gears, especially the waterproof jacket.

A wonderful product that once again cleaned the rain coat and restored it’s waterproof quality.

I strongly recommend this product to revive waterproof clothing!!! My waterproof hardshell jackets and pants were purchased 6 years ago for heavy use on long walks (1-2 hours) during the rainy season here in Seattle. Over the years, I have maintained waterproofness by using the Nikwax hardshell cleaning detergent a few times per year, which seemed to be enough to revive decent beading during rainy walks. By the end of the last rainy season, I was still able to walk about 1 hours in light rain and only about 15 minutes in consistent, moderate to heavy rain before I felt any moisture seep in. However, the water beading at the start of the current rainy season was almost non-existent. I did not want to chance walking around and getting soaked as the season progressed and heavier rains arrived. I asked Gemini about alternatives to spending hundreds on new waterproof clothing; a suggestion was the Nikwax Hardshell Cleaning and Waterproofing duo-pack. After reading many reviews, I bought the duo-pack as I had already run out of the cleaning detergent last season. I followed the easy instructions for washing/treating and drying my clothing exactly as described on the bottles. After washing, treating, and drying as described, I did not observe any weird smells or residues on my clothing, although my clothing did feel a little softer, a good thing! The first test of waterproofness was the next day as an Atmospheric River arrived. Before starting my walk, the forecast predicted only occasional light rain for a few hours, but it actually started raining moderately to heavily just a few minutes after I walked out the door, and it rained like that for my entire 1.5 hour walk. Importantly, in terms of the clothing: 1) the rain beaded amazingly on my jacket and pants, maybe even better than when new. 2) I stayed completely dry! 3) I am confident I could have walked for much longer and still stayed dry! The easy to use Nikwax cleaning and treatment has given me the confidence that I will stay dry through unexpected rain, and the major bonus was that I saved hundreds versus buying new clothing!

Thise products works well. Water just beads of my goretex pants and raincoats. The shipping was sub-par. Both bottles were leaking in the package and one bottle had a small cut in it from being smashed near the bottom. Neither lost much volume of product, but it doesn't seem like it would be all that difficult to ship a product without damaging it.

We have used these products many times before so can say that they do work and are probably the best out there, although a little expensive.

Ottimi prodotti, per rigenerare l'idrorepellenza di tutto l'abbigliamento sportivo e non che ha perso o cmq ristabilire la tenuta contro l'acqua. Il procedimento non è del tutto immediato ma funziona benissimo rispetto a tutti gli altri prodotti anche quelli dei negozi sportivi

Works just as intended…. We used it to clean our ski pants and jackets to keep it clean and water repellent… tried the clothes in our second trip and it was better than the original manufacturer coating Highly recommend

After realising that my jacket was no longer waterproof, I looked for something to fix it. This stuff did the trick. Easy enough to use. The effect was from water soaking through the jacket to beading and running off. I'll use this more regularly now to keep it waterproof.

Los compré para un traje de moto y siguió calando cuando llovía
