Failure

Rating:*
I followed the directions to the letter. Washed items with their special wash, too. Applied it to snowboarding gloves, pants and to my rei "waterproof" jacket. Gloves stayed wet, jacket stayed dry for about 2 hours on a hike by Mt St Helens before succumbing to the rain and the pants lasted a day on Mt Hood before they started to soak up the water. God bless high limit credit cards and Gore-Tex Pro Shell because this stuff failed and i upgraded all my stuff so i wouldnt ever be tempted to try it again.

spray bottle doesn't spray

Rating:*
The spray bottles I tried, from two different stores and two other sales people also trying to get it to spray failed. If I were able to get the fluid to spray, I'm sure it would have been effective. I was encouraged to use Wash In instead. I think the waxy nature of this product is not able to be pumped through a straw and sprayer nozzle.
