Update: Nikwax re-waterproofing...
Re-proofed my polyester ski gear with Nikwax PolarProof, following
advice from this group. Now, I have just completed the 'stick it under the tap' test, and the results were really impressive, like water off a duck's back! How long this will last, only time will tell. Thanks to those who replied with advice, namely, Michael Dart, bdubya (bw), Walt and Sven Golly. Now it's time to snap on my rather battered Xscreams and hit the waterlogged slopes of Scotland...I'll need all the waterproofing I can get! -- __Jambers__ -----please de-MUNG address to reply----- |

It doesn't last as long as the factory stuff, but it is a very thorough job while it lasts. I use this for a lot of my gear, most frequently for my drytop. It needs about one refresh for a full season of running whitewater, which I do pretty frequently (3-6x weekly). -- :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::::::::::::::::::::::: Mary Malmros Some days you're the windshield, Other days you're the bug. |
