All waterproof clothing needs to be cared for to keep it performing at its best.
While washing specialist technical apparel in regular laundry detergents might leave them looking clean, it can damage the performance of the garment.
Standard liquid or powder-based laundry detergents often contain heavy surfactants, softeners, optical brighteners, perfumes, and various other additives which become embedded in the garment.
While these additives have a specific function in standard laundry items, for technical waterproof clothing these additives will act as wetting agents, masking the original DWR treatment applied to your garment as well as effecting the performance of any subsequent reproofing.
The Muc-Off Technical Wash for Apparel has been formulated to effectively remove dirt and residues from performance textiles without impacting any breathability, helping to maintain a garments’ existing DWR as well as providing a clean residue-free base for effective re-proofing.
