Nikwax Down Proof provides reliable wash-in waterproofing for down-filled clothing and sleeping bags, treating both the outer fabric and down fill with a flexible Durable Water Repellent (DWR).
This helps prevent moisture absorption, maintain down's insulating properties and reduce weight gain when exposed to rain or condensation.
Easy to apply by washing machine or by hand, Down Proof is designed to prolong the effective life and performance of down gear while allowing moisture vapour to escape.
For best results, Nikwax recommends cleaning the item first with Nikwax Down Wash Direct before applying Down Proof.
