I own a Monkey Man jacket and it has been one of the greatest fleeces that I have ever owned. My only wish is that it had pit zips. My question is, after washing the fleece with Revivex synthetic fabric cleaner, should I wash it again with Revivex Wash In Water Repellent to restore the DWR? It has been washed a few times since I bought it about a year ago and I was wondering if I needed to renew the DWR.

Kurt S. Good question. As long as you have kept the garment clean it probably is not necessary yet to renew the DWR. Washing the jacket and popping it in the dryer for a bit will do wonders for the DWR already on the fleece. As for whether or not it's time for Revivex... I am not sure but I would say that you have little risk in giving it a shot. I am just not sure how the Revivex would work with fleece but again you have little risk in trying it out. Hope this info helps!
