Ski Wear (jackets, pants and gloves) - here’s how to clean:
- Check the pocket are empty
- Place ski wear in washing machine.
- Add Nikwax Tech Wash. In a top-loading machine, add three full caps (150ml) for 1-3 garments or five full caps (250ml) for 4-6 garments. In a front loader, it’s best to add no more than two garments with two capfuls (100ml) of Tech Wash. Special note: If you live in an area with hard water, toss in an extra capful of Tech Wash.
- Sit back with a good book and a glass of wine/beer/hot cocoa as the machine runs its course.
- More often than not, this single cycle will be enough to have revitalized your jacket.
Ski Goggles - here’s how to clean:
Apply Nikwax Visor Proof by hand…
