Nikwax Tech Wash and TX Direct Twin Pack Three Hundred Milliliters

The Nikwax Tech Wash and TX Direct Twin Pack is an essential solution for maintaining and revitalizing waterproof outdoor wear and equipment, with each bottle containing three hundred milliliters of product. Tech Wash is a specialized non detergent soap designed to safely clean and revitalize the breathability and Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating on your gear.

Using this combination improves the performance of your wet weather clothing and gear, allowing it to work better for longer. Both products are very easy to use for hand washing or in the washing machine, and TX Direct requires no heat activation to work, thereby saving energy. This product is categorized under Plant Control & Protection (as a general non-garden product placeholder).
