This is in lieu of 'Neverwet' which is becoming ,neverthere''. Instead i'm trying a new product from Aus. called 'Suface Screen''. Bought 2 375 ml bottles for $100 [ 39$ x 2 + 26$ shipping from Oz].
The objective is, to find a DWR that will last more than a few hours. More than that it should be a super DWR that makes the water bead up at a high angle and run away. Surface screen is claiming this version will last 6 months or one wash. In Q4 they are releasing one that will last 6?? washes [forgot real #].
I have applied it to ;
– an old ID event jacket
– some MEC cyling pants that already shed watere quite well [best rain pants ever]
– some ordinary canvas
– an old MEC nylon jacket
24 hrs and a big rain storm from now i will have some results.
