Hello –
I have a Sil-Nylon poncho I want to clean. It is it OK to wash this in NikWax Tech-Wash and then air dry it?
Thanks!

I have not yet ruined any sil in the washer. I use regular dye/scent free detergent with maybe some powdered borax if it smells like smoke. Can't hurt it. There is no DWR to wash off.
If you're looking to eliminate an odor in your poncho, try dunking it in a solution of McNett Mirazyme. It won't remove marks or mildew stains however.
FWIW, on Tarptent's website, it says to wash silnylon in Woolite.
