TOP TIP
If washing water repellent/waterproof garments we'd recommend re-treating with our Wash-In or Spray-On Rain Shield ReProofer after the wash to restore the water repellent finish. Follow the directions for use on the bottle for application details.
How many washes will I get per 300ml/10.14oz bottle?
If you use the suggested measure of 25ml-0.16oz per wash load you will get 12 washes per bottle.
When should I wash my technical apparel?
All technical apparel, especially waterproof apparel needs regular washing to keep the membranes breathing and performing at their best. If your apparel is starting to wet out or mud and grime is clinging to the surface, then it's time for a wash with our Technical Wash.
What wash temperature should I use when washing my garment?
We'd always recommend following your garment manufacturers care label instructions which will provide you with their recommended wash temperature. For an outdoor technical garment this will usually be 30C-86F or 40C-104F. Muc-Off Technical Wash is formulated to work at any temperature.

TOP TIP - For an even more durable treatment, you can apply our Rain Shield Re-Proofer spray as a second treatment after using the wash in formula. This will build a secondary water repellent coating on garments used in very harsh/wet conditions.
N.B The efficiency of the DWR applied to the surface of the technical apparel will gradually wear off over time with normal wear and washing, so we recommend refreshing the coating every 3 months depending on wear and washing frequency. All waterproof clothing needs to be cared for to keep it performing at its best. Using ordinary household detergent will ultimately break down the DWR and impair the water repellence, due to the heavy surfactants in these products. If you notice that water is no longer beading on the surface of your garment and soaking into the fabric, then it is time to refresh with Re-proofer.
How many jackets/ garments can I treat per bottle?
Depending on how much you use the 300ml/10.14oz bottle will treat around 3 garments (XL sized jackets) per bottle.
How long will the treatment last after application?

Can you use Wash-In Rain Shield Re-Proofer on normal clothes?
The re-proofer will add a DWR coating to the fabric to provide some water resistance, but you cannot make non-waterproof fabric fully waterproof.
