Gear Aid Revivex Pro High-Tech Fabric Cleaner, 10 fl oz - Restores Water Repellency and Breathability - Safe for Use with Gore-TEX Jackets, Sleeping Bags and Tents

LOVE this stuff! Used it to handwash my tent to get the unbelievable STENCH of wet dog out of it after a couple very rainy weeks of camping with my pup. Bought the Gear Aid odor remover just incase the cleaner didn't get rid of the smell, but I ended up not needing to use it. This was so much easier to use than Nikwax products and you get so much more product for less than Nikwax. I'll be using Gear Aid tech wash from now on for all my outdoor gear. :)

Easy to use and did the trick. I got two jackets washed and waterproofed out of this quantity of spray repellant and plenty of detergent to do more so I ordered a second spray and still have some detergent left over for next year. Bonus was I could finish the jackets in the dryer! I suggest spreading out your clothing on a drop cloth and lifting the sleeves to get underarm area, then turning the garment over to spray the other side as the you can get the more spray in a downward motion than forward towards a hanging garment that wants to move around.

Works well

I have an old wind pullover that was bought in 2009. I have used it as a wind jacket but lately was wearing for the rain. During a down pour the jacket was completed soaked and I was completely wet under the jacket. I used the GEAR Aid Care kit and today was out in the rain again and did not get wet at all. You have to follow the directions. I washed the jacket with the Pro cleaner using a capful for each product. I had the jacket, rain pants and a raincoat in my front loader washing machine and used a cap full for each item. Ran it on cold and then add the Wash in water repellent pouring it in the softener section and setting on delicate and warm. After it was done placed it in the dryer on medium for polyester items and ran it at the full timer. When it came out everything was slick. I wore the pants and wind jacket today and it was pouring but did not get wet at all after paying 18 holes. I also bought the spray Gear Aid Revivex DWR spray and used it on the head overs and it kept the head cover dry. I also tried the spray on a new raincoat and it beaded the water perfectly. This is a good product, just follow the directions and it works well. The most important part is using the Pro cleaner first before using the Revivex Wash in Water repellent or the spray. The Pro cleaner seems to remove any residue from other water repellent treatments and allows the Revivex Wash in Water Repellent and spray to adhere better. I don't know how long this will last but there is enough to re-treat it every 6 months. Also the old raincoat was sticky but after washing and treating with the Wash in Water Repellent the old rain coat became slick again. I was going to throw it out the old rain coat because it was all sticky and gross but now it is good for another 10 years.

Do not buy this combo. Product contains 1 10oz Revivex Pro Cleaner and 1 10oz Revivex Wash-in Water Repellent. It is more economical to purchase these separately. This product description was confusing as i thought i would be receiving 2x combo pack containing both products.
