Mrs pinky is always on the hunt for a bargain and today she stumbled across this. I'm posting it here because it might actually be helpful and you can get a free sample.

I've ordered mine so we'll see how it is when it arrives

Free waterproofing sample

According to the website it seems a decent product.

Quote:
Nikwax treatments coat fabric and leather fibres with a network of elastic TX.10i water-repellent molecules. They bond to anything that is not water-repellent, but leave the spaces between fibres open and breathable. Nikwax treatments can flex and move with the fabric and leather fibres. That is why Nikwax treatments can withstand several washings and remain whereas the competitors must be re-applied after each wash.

If its no good then hey, its free! Laughing

I do a lot of hiking and Nikwax is this country's main producer of waterproofing for boots/clothing etc...used it for years, so free stuff from them is great.

So if this is being run by nikwax, why is the page being hosted on some other ropey server? Thinking

That I couldnt tell you. Very possibly one of their affiliates but from the research mrs Pinky has done this offer is genuine, I will let you know when or if mine arrives.

It's top stuff... follow the link to the web quiz and it looks like you could be in product forever if you've just got one or two jackets to wash!
