My Endura Rebound showerproof* is no longer showerproof, so I was looking at using some Nikwax TX Direct to re-waterproof it. It costs about £6-7 for 300ml - does anyone know how many uses I will get out of this - just the one or more? I ripped the jacket so am debating whether to replace it...

*great cheap, breathable jacket by the way

you'll get many washes out of one of those bottles. IIRC you only need about 30 to 80 ml of the stuff for each wash. (depending on how many items to proof in each wash)

If it's the wash in stuff, about 3 jackets worth, 2 capfuls per wash as I recall. Spray on stuff about the same, 2-3 jackets.

Ok not bad value then. I was also wondering about using their cotton stuff for making non-waterproof baggies waterproof, but I suspect that might be a bad idea...
