Spray on wareproofer for TOG24 puffer jacket

[raybarrow]

Hi Folks,
Can anyone recommend the above. This lightweight jacket has a Polymide inner and outer but filling is down. Not sure how the washing the waterproofer in will work with a down filling hence thinking a spray might be better. I stand to be corrected. In the old days their was a waterproofer, now there are a number of fabric specific but 'nylon' type fabrics are not mentioned.

Cheers,
Ray.

Well I can recommend against the Kiwi one ... as was at least; on a search although several look similar I don't see the one I used.

I have a lightweight nylon jacket that was losing its rain resistance and I sprayed a whole can of Kiwi waterproofing on it, and the next time I went out when it was raining there was a heavy downpour that just went straight through it and I was soaked.

Possibly they've changed the contents since then or possibly they've just changed the look of the cans....

I use Scotchgard on my leather jacket and SO uses Nikwax wash in on trousers and jackets. https://www.nikwax.com/en-gb/waterproofing
