NIKWAX - good but.........
Great product but with the very soft water we have in Devon I needed only half of the amount it said to use, I ended up with so many suds I had to stop the machine empty it, wring out the coat and put it back on a short wash without any detergent solution. It would be handy if there was a note on the product regarding super soft water. Outcome is that the coat is super clean and when out in the rain the water was running off in globules just as it should. Overall a very good product.

Really works, cleans and protects outdoor breathable clothing esp. Goretex products.
I have been using Tech Wash for years and years. It is brilliant. The problem with waterproofs and breathable clothing is that the fabric softeners and additives in detergent block the holes in breathable clothing. Enter Tech Wash. It is a very effective detergent that removes heavy ingrained dirt, mud etc on outdoor clothing and does not affect the breathability of the clothing. After a few washes, when I notice the rain does not bead on the waterproof clothing I use the Nikwax Wash in Waterproofer. As a tip I always make sure I put the washing machine on a very hot cycle with normal detergent to clean it out, and wash out the soap and fabric softener drawer before using Tech Wash. It may not be the cheapest, but it really does care for and clean your breathable outdoor gear.

Keeping it clean and fresh
This is the only brand I will use when it comes to cleaning and protecting waterproof clothing. It's great that Amazon sells this singular whereas most places sell the twin packs of clean / protect.

It just works
Bit of a standard for this type of cleaner just seems to work well! Easy to use.

Don't kid yourself ...
Meh. Not very effective cleaning and did NOTHING to restore 'beading' of water off my Berghaus coat. I'll try the "heat treatment" (via a tumble-drier) and see if that has some effect ... but I suspect the bottom-line is that these (expensive) Gore-Tex coats are just disposable crap - they last for a season/year, and that's your lot.

Waterproofing my coat
Excellent price and excellent delivery. Washed my coat well and hopefully it's waterproofed will soon tell as it's raining again today as usual ☔

Great for cleaning hiking gear.
Used this to wash my Gregory hiking backpack in my bathtub. Soaked for 10 minutes with warm water and this detergent. Spot cleaned with a brush and direct application. Worked great removing all but a few stains that were several years old. Pack had weeks for dirt and grime on it. and this removed 90+ % of it. Very happy with the Tech Wash.

Perfetto
Utilizzato su abbigliamento tecnico: windstopper /guscio della gore (completo guscio + pantalone) , giacca antivento e pioggia della Montura, e due diversi antivento/pioggia della Salewa. Risultati ottimi: ripristina sia la trasportabilità sia l’impermeabilizzazione

Top Produkt für meine Softshell Jacken
Habe lange nach einem guten Waschmittel und Imprägnierung für meine Funktionsjacken gesucht, da ich mit den bisher getesteten der Jackenhersteller nicht zufrieden war, weil sie entweder einen unangenehmen Geruch hatten oder die Waschwirkung nicht zufriedenstellend war. Doch die Suche hat jetzt mit TechWash von Nikwax ein Ende. Hab meine Mammut, Jack Wolfskin und UF Pro Jacke gewaschen und anschließend mit Softshell Proof von Nikwax imprägniert und bin begeistert - als hätte ich die Jacken frisch gekauft. Kein unangenehmer Geruch mehr in der Waschmaschine. Beachtet nur die korrekte Anwendung.
