    Good idea or not? (maybe just around head/face area and feet. To keep nice and protect against condensation)

    I used ReviveX products when I washed my bag, following the instructions on the WM website:

    If your problem is condensation from your body moisture, you want it to get outside through the shell of the bag. Otherwise the moisture is inside the shell in the down! I don't think a good quality DWR spray will affect this one way or another.

    Thanks for your feedback. I want to protect my $400 purchase as best as I can. :)
