Grangers Clothing Repel is an ideal solution for outdoor enthusiasts looking to restore the performance of their technical outerwear, including GORE-TEX and Pertex fabrics. Its primary benefit is the ease of a wash-in application that restores durable water repellency (DWR) while preserving breathability, helping you stay dry in challenging conditions. The main caveat is that it is designed specifically for machine washing, so it is not suitable for garments that cannot be laundered or those that require spray-on treatments for targeted areas.

Yes, Grangers Clothing Repel is specifically formulated to be safe and effective on GORE-TEX and other technical membrane fabrics.
No, this formula does not require heat activation, though a low-heat tumble dry can sometimes help if your garment's care label allows it.
It is highly recommended to use a technical wash cleaner instead of household detergents, as standard soaps can leave residues that hinder water repellency.
No, it is designed to restore water repellency specifically while maintaining the breathability of the technical fabric.
You should re-proof whenever you notice water no longer beads on the surface of your garment after a light rain or a splash test.
Ensure the garment was properly cleaned before applying the reproofer. Residual dirt or old detergents often block the treatment from bonding with the fabric.
You likely used too much product. Try running the garment through an extra rinse cycle to remove excess residue.
To use Grangers Clothing Repel, ensure your washing machine drawer is clean and free from any residual detergent or fabric softener, as these can interfere with the waterproofing process. Place the garment in the drum, add the specified amount of Repel (refer to the bottle instructions for dosage based on garment type), and run a standard wash cycle at 30°C. Always check the manufacturer's care label on your garment before washing to ensure machine laundering is safe. Once the cycle finishes, drip dry the garment in a well-ventilated area. If the label permits, a light tumble dry on a low setting can further enhance the DWR finish, though it is not strictly required for this formula.
