Nikwax Polar Proof for Waterproofing Fleece and Synthetic Insulation

Season:Always In Stock

Brand:Nikwax

Code:NIK-2G1

Easy to use, safe, high performance waterproofing for fleece Adds Durable Water Repellency; reducing weight gain and maintaining breathability and insulation of fleece in wet weather.

Your fleece garment could be soaking up water just because it is dirty. First, try cleaning it with Nikwax Tech Wash®, and if it is fairly new, or recently re-waterproofed, the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) will be revitalised just from cleaning. But once the garment has been thoroughly worn, you will need to add DWR using Nikwax Polar Proof®, after cleaning first with Nikwax Tech Wash®.

Nikwax Polar Proof® has been specifically designed and optimised for fleece garments; it leaves a flexible water repellent treatment on individual fibres allowing moisture vapour to pass through, maintaining breathability and optimising performance in wet weather. Additionally, it inhibits pilling of fleece fabrics, prolonging the life of gear. Nikwax Polar Proof® is easy and quick to apply in a washing machine and ensures that the treatment goes right through the garment. The highly Durable Water Repellency (DWR) of Nikwax Polar Proof® develops on air drying. Therefore the need for tumble drying is removed, saving energy.

  1. Use Nikwax Polar Proof® in a washing machine. For best results always clean item(s) first with Nikwax Tech Wash® in a separate wash cycle. No need to dry item(s) before waterproofing. Shake well before use. Follow care label instructions.
  2. Remove all detergent build-up from the detergent dispenser.
  3. Place clean items(s) in washing machine (maximum 3 items).
  4. Use 50ml for 1 item and 100ml for 2-3 items.
  5. Wash according to care label.

  • Drip-dry or tumble dry on a low setting if care label allows.
  • To maintain waterproofing always wash with Nikwax Tech Wash®. Do not use detergents.

Nikwax takes great care to minimise environmental impact. Nikwax waterproofing products are WaterBased, non-aerosol, non-flammable, non-hazardous and environmentally friendly. They contain no harmful solvents or volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and are completely free of fluorocarbons (which have been shown to be persistent in the environment and have been associated with serious health issues). As well as actual compounds, sourcing is considered as well, so Nikwax avoids using materials in its cleaners such as palm oil, which may be sourced from unsustainable plantations. Nikwax Tech Wash® is environmentally friendly, non-hazardous, water based and biodegradable.
