Why cotton is a commonly used material ...
Cotton is a natural fiber; as such, it can be renewed, it is biodegradable and it can be produced biologically. It is highly versatile and can be used to produce many fabrics, each with different characteristics. In addition, cotton can be mixed with synthetic fibers such as polyester, to combine the most desired characteristics of both materials. Cotton fabrics are breathable, absorbent and strong. They are used in the manufacture of clothing and mountain equipment, but by themselves they do not repel water.
When the cotton gets wet it stays wet ...
Cotton is highly absorbent and retains water, so it takes time to dry when it gets wet. Therefore, it is important to ensure that cotton wrap clothing does not absorb water, as this will lead to increased weight and prevent its breathability.
To prevent cotton fabrics from absorbing water, Water Repellent Repellency (DWR) can be added by applying Niwkax Cotton Proof ™.
Nikwax Cotton Proof ™ is a must for people who enjoy outdoor activities. Whether you have a fisherman's blouse, a cotton or poly-cotton jacket or a canvas tent, it will provide you with Durable Water Repellency (DWR) to prevent water absorption and weight gain.
If the cotton garments are dirty, they will be soaked. First, try cleaning them with Nikwax Tech Wash®, and if they are relatively new, or have been waterproofed recently, Durable Water Repellency (DWR) will be revitalized after cleaning. But once the items have been used, you will need to add DWR using Nikwax Cotton Proof ™ after cleaning them with Nikwax Tech Wash®.
Nikwax Cotton Proof ™ is a safe product for use in warm clothes and cotton equipment. It is aqueous, non-flammable, does not contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and is free of fluorocarbons.
Nikwax Cotton Proof ™ has been specifically designed and optimized for cotton, poly-cotton and canvas, providing Durable Water Repellency (DWR) while maintaining breathability. Nikwax Cotton Proof ™ does not require heat to develop your DWR, so it is not necessary to use a dryer for the best results.
If your garment is made of waxed cotton, be sure to use Nikwax Wax Cotton Proof ™ for the best results.
Nikwax Cotton Proof ™ has been designed and optimized specifically for cotton, poly-cotton and breathable canvas; It leaves a flexible water repellent treatment on individual fibers allowing moisture to pass through, maintaining breathability, prolonging the life of your equipment and optimizing its performance in wet weather.
