TX Direct Wash In

Nikwax TX Direct Wash-In treatment restores durable water repellency (DWR) for waterproof/breathable fabrics such as Gore-Tex, HyVent, PreCip, and Event. Washing and using fabrics can make them begin to absorb water or "wet out". Nikwax TX-Direct completely restores surface water-repellency which enhances breathability. Nikwax TX-Direct lasts several washings and does not need to be reapplied after every wash like other treatments.

Directions are easy and the product works as advertised. After using direct wash-in it feels like some of my fleece items got softer, almost like they were when they were new, years ago.

Still keeping my gear waterproof.

It's easy to use, it works, it's good for the planet, and it keeps my gear in tip-top shape.

Outstanding product from great company. Restored outer water repellency to my Arc'teryx ski shell. Couldn't be easier to wash in.

I use this on my horse blankets. Only thing that waterproofs and is still breathable for our horses when they are out in wet weather.

DWR Refresh

I've used this Nikwax - TX Direct Wash-In several times. It is the best way I know to refresh the DWR on shells. It's important you clean the garment properly first (with Nikwax Tech Wash or Atsko Sport Wash or similar). This alone often helps refresh the DWR as get dirty can interfere with the garment's water resistance. Washing the garment in TX Direct adds a layer of wax that does help the DWR. It's not magic so it doesn't make the garment new and sometimes you may need to seal the seams or do additional maintenance, but TX Direct undoubtedly improves degrades DWR and extends the life of your shells.

Nikwax has never let me down.

Every product I have ever used others has performed above expectations. They’re waterproof treatments last a long time, do not omit offensive odors, and have kept me warm and dry 435+ years.

Must have for outdoorsy people!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This water resistant spray has come in handy for so many applications. Tents, coats, small bags, gloves, shoes, etc anything you don’t want to let water through or might need to strengthen from use over time. As an avid hunter and camper, I don’t go out in the field without this stuff anymore! Game changer

NIXWAX TX.DIRECT and TECH WASH

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] NIXWAX Tech Wash and NIXWAX Wash-In has been a godsend! I have grown up with (and still live with) hunters and fishermen, need I say more?. I can say, without any doubt, NIKWAX products work far beyond my expectations. Just remember, TECH WASH should be used with any old clothing you may have, first. Once that is done, the TX direct washing makes each piece of clothing look awesome. NIKWAX WORKS!!!
