Afterpay – How it works
Tech Wash® is an easy-to-use, safe, high-performance cleaner for wet weather clothing and equipment to revive breathability and water repellency. Clothing can be treated with Tech Wash® in a washing machine and other equipment can be treated in a sink. Use by itself on fairly new or recently re-waterproofed items. If you find Tech Wash® doensn't revitalise the durable water repellency of your clothing or gear it is time to re-waterproof using the appropriate Nikwax waterproofer.
  • Technical cleaner for outdoor clothing and synthetic sleeping bags
  • Cleans effectively, restores water repellency and revives breathability
  • Revives the performance of your gear, keeping you warmer and drier
  • Easy to apply: can be used in a washing machine
  • Suitable for use on all fabrics, including technical textiles
  • Recommended for GORE-TEX®, Windstopper®, Nikwax Analogy® and all other waterproof, windproof and fleece clothing and gear
  • Lifts out dirt that can attract water and mask water repellent finishes
  • Unlike detergents, it does not leave behind water attractive residues which encourage 'wetting-out'
  • Uses per bottle: 3-4 items
  • How to use:
    • Use neat Tech Wash® and a sponge or soft nylon brush to treat stubborn stains before washing
    • Remove all non-washable parts
    • Shake well before use
    • Follow care label instructions
    • Do not use detergents
    • For clothing, machine wash:
      1. Remove all detergent build-up from the detergent dispenser
      2. Place maximum of 2 garments in washing machine
      3. Use 150ml in medium/hard water areas and 100ml in soft water areas for 1-2 items
      4. Run 30°C synthetic cycle and slow spin (front loader) or 40°C synthetic cycle (top loader)
      5. Alternatively, just apply Nikwax in a simple hand wash
      6. Drip-dry or tumble dry on a low setting if the care label allows
    • For tents and accessories:
      1. Apply item in hand-hot water in a sink or bowl and agitate
      2. Rinse thoroughly in clean water
      3. Drip-dry
    • Volume guide: To clean 1-2 items use 2 full caps (100 ml) in soft water or 3 full caps in hard water. Quantities used will depend on condition and size of items
  • You don't need to re-waterproof every time you clean; Regular cleaning will enhance the performance of your gear. With regular cleaning, you should be able to clean your gear 5-6 times with Nikwax Tech Wash before it requires re-waterproofing. When Nikwax Tech Wash® alone does not revitalize the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) of your gear (e.g. water does not bead on the fabric surface) it's time to re-waterproof using the appropriate Nikwax waterproofer.
