Our Verdict
Nikwax TX. Direct Spray-on has been designed specifically for breathable, waterproof garments and works to replace and restore their water repellent finish. If your garment loses this finish it will soak up water, which in turn will restrict the breathable performance of membranes like Gortex or eVent.
The TX.Direct Spray-on is easy to use, just spay it on your garment and wait, no washing machines needed. This fantastic Eco-friendly Spray-on is designed to be used after cleaning with Nikwax's Tech Wash, so your garments will perform season after season.
