Revitalize Your Waterproof Gear with Nikwax TX.Direct® Wash-In
Keep your outdoor gear performing like new with Nikwax TX.Direct® Wash-In Waterproofing—a high-performance, PFAS-free solution designed to restore water repellency and breathability to your waterproof clothing. Perfect for Gore-Tex®, eVent®, and other technical fabrics, this easy-to-use wash-in treatment ensures you stay dry and comfortable in any weather.
Why Choose Nikwax TX.Direct®?
Restores DWR Coating: Renews durable water repellency (DWR) without compromising breathability.
No Tumble Drying Needed: Activates with air drying, saving energy and protecting delicate fabrics.
Machine or Hand Wash Application: Simple to use—just add during your regular wash cycle or soak by hand.
Eco-Friendly & Safe: Non-flammable and free from harmful PFAS chemicals.
How It Works
Waterproof jackets lose effectiveness when dirt and wear break down their DWR coating, causing them to “wet out.” Unlike conventional detergents that strip away protection, Nikwax TX.Direct® bonds to fibers, preventing water absorption while allowing moisture vapor to escape. For best results, pre-clean garments with Nikwax Tech Wash® before applying.
