The main go to brand for a reason
Perfect for all your gear. Easy to apply and very effective on giving your gear a boost and refresh, can get some blobs on spray but they can be wiped off or they disappear when absorb. Can get plenty of uses for money. Have done a tent and couple coats and stilla have some left. Does have bit of a smell when applying so recommend doing outside.

Brilliant on well used Caravan Awning (Kampa)
Having used Nikwax products in the past it was always expensive but worked well. This product is still as good. Bought to weather proof our 6 year old well used Kampa Air Pro Awning having never been done before and a few very minor water weeps around one of the seams I thought I would give a go. Well it it worked , a simple spray and brush off the excess and the leaks go away - brilliant.I noticed that instantly the awning is now beading water preventing large puddles it’s like new actually again brilliant.Suggest using sparingly as it runs down quick wasting the product plus be careful getting on skin as it’s hard to wash off.Overall amazing product that has made our well used awning waterproof again!Highly recommended.

Great product doe's exactly what its designed for
I would ignore the negative reviews as they seem to have misunderstood what this product is and what it's used for. If your tent is currently leaking this will not help and has the possibility of making it worse.This product is used to add an outer protective coating that isn't waterproof but is water repellant. This will cause your tents fabric to start beading water so it runs off easier. Much like when having your car interior or home sofa protected with something like Scotchgard, the water will sit on top of the fabric rather than soaking straight into it.A water repellant is no good if your tent is leaking. Your tent can leak for 2 reasons:1. (most common) Water coming through the seams of the tent. This is because they are not tightly woven like the main canopy is and over time the waterproof layer on the underside of them fails/cracks. If this is your case then you can buy a seam repair kit to solve this issue. Even the best tents have this problem over time.2. Water is coming through your main canopy. This is due to the polyurethane coating that's applied to the inside of your nylon canopy wearing away or cracking. Again you will need a specialist repair product for that.This product MIGHT help in the fact it could bead the water away from the damaged areas but it also MIGHT make it much worse if the water beads onto the damaged areas. Either way, if your tent is currently leaking this isn't the product for you.

Good waterproofing
Follow instructions carefully for use. Reproofed an awning with this and it worked perfectly. Awning was made damp and product applied all over with soft broom then air dried. Great protection, good value for money. Doesn't smell bad either.

Works on lots of other fabrics perfectly.
This stuff works on canvas, waterproof coat materials that are no longer waterproof. It works on converse type shoes, some types of mesh trainers. My German army coat is completely waterproof with this stuff as are my Craghoppers trousers, as are my wife and daughters Converse trainers and RocketDogs.. On something like Trousers it lasts a shorter time because of so much movement and friction. You do find on some clothes you notice that friction and flexing areas will need proofing more regularly. I do shoulder areas a few times because i want the best protection if it's torrential.There is a slight smell, almost vingegary, that wears off. I've never found any other waterproofer that works as well as Nikwax and have put loads of other people onto it too.Some things you spray it direct, some you soak in a tub, practice makes perfect.

Good for fine mesh
Not for woven nylon tarps but good for other more tightly meshed material

Limited beeding on Nylon Flysheet
This did help improve the beading somewhat, but its not as effective as hoped - ineed, this is the same with all similar DWR products - they just do not work as well as they ought to.But it will improve a tent fly that wets through immediately - and infact if your does, then the effect/result might be better as the product is carried into the fibres. If your fly already beeds ok, I suspect the improvement will be liited as you apply this to wet material.I washed the fly (no detergent/softenter, detergent free machine) so it was saturated, and got a somewhat ok beading improvement.
