In July, Nikwax launched a new and improved version of Cotton Proof, a waterproofing treatment for all cotton clothing and other cotton equipment.
Nikwax Cotton Proof is easy to use in the washing machine at home and makes all cotton fabrics water-repellent so you stay warmer and drier when caught in a rain shower. With the new, improved, and three times more concentrated version, users get not only a better-performing product but also more value for money.
Nowadays, the favorite trousers for walks and hikes during spring and fall are often made from a cotton/synthetic blend. It’s also becoming increasingly popular to wear cotton wind jackets in summer. When it rains, pure or blended cotton fabrics usually absorb quite a lot of water. The clothes become wet, heavy, and cold. A simple treatment with Nikwax Cotton Proof adds Durable Water Repellency (DWR) that makes the clothes absorb less water, dry faster, and become much more comfortable to wear.
Nikwax founder Nick Brown said at the launch at the OutDoor fair: “We’ve all been caught in a rain shower while wearing hiking trousers and had to endure cold legs and soaked fabric that makes it hard to move. Not pleasant at all! With Nikwax Cotton Proof, you stay comfortably dry for longer without having to pull on heavy rain trousers.”
Cotton Proof has been developed specifically to treat cotton and cotton/polyester fabrics. It gives the fibers a flexible water-repellent surface that lets air through. This means your clothes continue to breathe as before, repel water better, and absorb less water.
As you’d expect, Nikwax always puts consumer safety first. Nikwax is the only established fabric care company on the market that has never used fluorocarbons (PFC) or aerosol. Nikwax Cotton Proof has been developed to meet the same high safety standards as all Nikwax products.
NEW Nikwax Cotton Proof will be available in 50 ml sachets. One sachet is enough to waterproof one garment. For more info, check out the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTP_l4Dye6k
