There's a few all-weather riders in here so I'm assuming you've got some experience on this.
My dog walking waterproofs are filthy and need a wash. I also want to re-waterproof them while I'm at it.
Does anyone have recommendations for me?

Re: Re-Waterproofer
I use this stuff on my walking kit. It's wash in but make sure you run the washing machine empty on a high temp a few times first.

Not sure what the material is Kwacky.. just your typical wet weather clothing.
I popped to GoOutdoors after a tip run and got that stuff, it came highly recommended.

Defo would suggest any Nikwax product- I use their leather cleaner and restorer and always some up sparkly new, I have used their waterproof stuff to on certain things and never had an issue

That's the stuff I bought in the end.. since washing them I haven't had the displeasure of testing it. It did make my red raincoat look WAY brighter though !!

Re: Re-Waterproofer
Hopefully won't have to test it just yet Cav, but fairly certain Nikwax will protect you, just remember to keep treating the garment based on their recommendation
