My Tent Is Still Going After 8+ Years Of Use

I use this after every backpacking trip! my bigAg tent looks as good as new after lots of thrashing, storms, & thru-hikes. I also use this on my backpacking pack (over 15 years old now!) and on my dry sacks. It's great for anyone wanting to care for their gear.

Cleans Well, Not Great.

I have noticed that the tech wash does a good job of removing grime and stains; however, it fails to remove odors. I think the delicate washing cycles and mild manner of this soap only wash the clothes superficially. I noticed that bonfire smoke and smoke from grilling don't go away with this product. I highly recommend that anyone air out their gear in the sun before and after washing with this product to ensure that any smells dissipate.

Great For Water Resistance

detergents can be harsh on water resistand and breathable fabrics. this will treat them right. absolutely recommend.

It's the right detergent for GoreTex materials. It's rejuvenated most of my outerwear for more than 15 years. I've been surprised repeatedly with the changes after washing my Event and GoreTex garments with this, and following up with the spray treatment. Great product, will order again.

Best Way To Wash Outdoor Clothes

From my softshell pants to my hiking t shirts to my shell jackets before I re-waterproof them, the Tech Wash by Nikwax is the best. Takes away any odors, can be used in small amounts undiluted to treat stains, and cleans out the pores of my shell gear making it ready to be re-waterproofed, the Tech Wash does it all. If you go outside as often as I do, it just makes sense to buy the big bottle and always have it on hand after an adventure. Super easy to use at home or at a Laundromat if traveling, with instructions on the bottle for both front-loading and top-loading machines!
