I have tried using nikwax wash and tx direct solutions to clean and re proof my 1 year old Gore Alp x jacket. It never seems to work well though.
I have tried hand wash, Machine wash, solutions in dispenser or directly in to the machine bowl. The washer has been flushed on a 90 wash empty beforehand and the jacket has been dried in Tumble drier and on other occasions air dried.
Whilst wearing this morning in 2 degrees c with a gore tool underneath and helly base layer under that, after an hour it was beading on the inside! It was soaked so i guess its not breathing at all now.
Help please?
