Product Information

Full details

The Storm Trading Group Wash-In Waterproofer is designed for outdoor enthusiasts, hikers, and commuters looking to maintain the longevity and performance of their technical apparel. Its primary benefit is the restoration of factory-level water repellency without compromising the material's essential breathability. While it offers a convenient, time-saving solution for standard laundry cycles, users should be aware that it requires a clean, residue-free garment to achieve optimal bonding and performance.

FAQs

Can I use this on Gore-Tex or similar membranes?

Yes, this formula is designed to be safe for technical membranes and will help maintain their breathability while restoring water repellency.

Do I need to wash the garment with regular soap first?

It is highly recommended to use a technical cleaner first if the garment is heavily soiled, as the waterproofer works best on a clean, open surface.

How many garments can I treat with one bottle?

Usage depends on the weight and type of fabric, but generally, one 1-litre bottle can treat 3-5 large garments depending on the dosage per load.

Does this replace the need for tumble drying?

No, if the garment label allows, a brief tumble dry on low heat is recommended after washing to heat-activate the water-repellent finish.

Is this safe for use in all washing machines?

It is compatible with standard front and top-loading washing machines, provided the detergent dispenser is clean.

Troubleshooting

Garment does not repel water after treatment

Ensure the garment was washed thoroughly to remove existing dirt or detergent residue. Residual soap prevents the proofer from bonding to the fabric.

Streaking or uneven application

Ensure the washing machine is not overloaded. A crowded drum prevents the product from circulating evenly through the fabric fibers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly restores water-beading properties to weathered gear
  • Maintains comfort by preserving fabric breathability
  • Highly convenient machine-washable application
  • Eco-friendly approach reduces water and energy consumption
  • Suitable for a wide variety of outdoor clothing

Cons

  • Performance is dependent on garment cleanliness
  • Not suitable for fabrics requiring specific non-wash treatments
  • Requires proper machine cycles to ensure even coating

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before usage, ensure your washing machine's detergent drawer is completely free of any standard laundry soap residue, as regular detergents can inhibit the bonding of the waterproofer. Place clean garments inside the drum and add the correct dosage as indicated on the bottle. Always use a gentle cycle with a cool to warm temperature setting. After washing, hang-dry or tumble-dry according to the clothing manufacturer's instructions. Keep the solution stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the chemical integrity of the liquid.
