Application Guide
For optimal results, always pre-clean garments with Nikwax Tech Wash before applying TX.Direct. The formula works equally well in both top-loading (10 fl oz per 3 garments) and front-loading machines (3 fl oz per garment). For hand application, mix 50ml with 6L of hand-hot water and soak garments for 5-10 minutes before thorough rinsing.
Note: Air drying is recommended, though tumble drying on low heat can help reactivate existing DWR treatments. Avoid conventional detergents as they can degrade waterproof performance.
