No, this specific twin pack is designed for synthetic insulating gear and waterproof membranes; you should use a down-specific cleaner for down items.
Yes, both Tech Wash and PolarProof are fully compatible with Gore-Tex and similar breathable membranes.
While air drying is often sufficient, check your garment's care label; some items benefit from a low-heat tumble dry to help activate the DWR finish.
Refer to the instructions on the back of each bottle as the dosage depends on the number of items being washed and the size of your machine.
No, you should never use regular laundry detergent with your technical gear, as it can permanently damage the waterproof breathability.
Ensure the garment was thoroughly cleaned with Tech Wash first to remove old detergent residue, and verify that the PolarProof was applied evenly.
Run an extra rinse cycle to remove excess product and ensure all soap has been washed out of the fibers.
For machine application, place your clean gear in the washing machine and remove any old detergent buildup from the dispenser drawer. Add the required amount of Tech Wash and run a cycle according to the garment's care label. If using PolarProof, you can apply it in a subsequent cycle while the garment is still damp. Always ensure that the garments are clean before applying the waterproofer for the best results. These products are effective on synthetic insulating gear, fleece, and membrane-based waterproof jackets. Store bottles in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain chemical stability.
