Down Waterproofing Solution: Restore DWR Repellency for Down Products

Cleaning and Waterproofing Down-filled Clothing and Gear from the Manufacturer

Step 1: PREP AND CLEAN To begin, clean the detergent drawer thoroughly to remove any residue. Next, place the garments in the washing machine. Ensure that the garments are cleaned with Nikwax Down Wash.Direct before proceeding. Add Down Wash.Direct to the washing machine and wash the garments according to the care label. Avoid using household detergents, as they may damage the down insulation.

Step 2: WATERPROOF Once the wash cycle with Down Wash.Direct is complete, keep the items in the washing machine. Shake the Down Proof well, then add it to the machine and wash the items according to the care label for a second time. It is important not to mix Down Wash.Direct and Down Proof in the same load.

Step 3: DRY Dry the garments according to the care label, either by using a dryer or air drying. For the best results, spin dry multiple times on a slow setting.

Step 4: FLUFF Finally, gently rub the jacket to remove any clumps that may have formed.
