I could have sworn that someone mentioned at one time that there was a good wash-in down treatment to make your down jacket more hydrophobic. Any suggestions?

I have used the Nikwax DownProof wash in product. It feels like a DWR treatment that soaks the down in wash, appyling DWR water beading to both the fabric and the down. I think that this is really all the factory down treatments are doing, although it is probably applied in a more efficient way.
