    Hi EJ

    I have used Revivex as well as Atsko. I can't say I was aware of any huge difference between them. But I am aware of the huge difference a proper wash makes!

    Cheers

    Took cobra venom all last winter for sciatica. Very effective.
    It's the natural toxins that work best, not those 'chemical' ones.

    Has anyone used both the Atsko/Sno-Seal and Grangers wash? Are they equally good? Asking because the Atsko is a far better value.

    An 18 fl. oz (532 ml) bottle of Sport-Wash Scent Free Detergent from Sno-Seal (also labeled Atsko) is good for 18 wash loads and costs only U.S. $5.99 on Campmor (and I have bought it for as little as $3-4/bottle as well). I've been using it for years with good results. It's based on biodegradable vegetable surfactants.

    10 fl. oz Grangers Performance Wash runs U.S. $11.34 on Amazon and claims it treats up to 6 wash loads.

    9.23 oz Grangers XT Waterproofer runs U.S. $14.81 on Amazon and claims it treats up to 4 garments.

    ReviveX Spray-On Water Repellent 10oz. which is water-based, treats 1-2 garments and runs $11.99 on Campmor and only treats 1-2 garments.

    If the Atsko/Sno-Seal wash and Grangers Performance wash are equal in performance, best bet is to combine the Atsko/Sno-Seal wash with the Grangers XT Waterproofer.
