When cleaning wading jackets and pants, mistakes are often made out of ignorance. The following tip from Field & Fish ensures that this does not happen.

Method:

First, you need to clean your products (waders and rain jackets) to remove the dirt that often clogs the pores of the breathable membranes before re-waterproofing your items.

For washing your waders and your rain jacket use Nikwax Tech Wash (300ml), a soak cleaner for waterproof clothing and gear that revitalizes breathability and water repellency with confidence. This product is a non-detergent detergent that can be used regularly to clean clothing and equipment without damaging the durable water repellency treatment. Use this product in place of conventional detergents or laundry detergents.

• Put your waders/rain jacket in the washing machine.
• Pour Nikwax Tech Wash into the detergent drawer.
• Choose a normal washing cycle with rinsing and start the machine. You can also operate Nikwax easily by hand.
• Drain or dry in a tumble dryer on low heat.

That's it!
