I was also a bit dubious about the nikwax washing machine method but it does work really well.
Used to be able to get 1 use sample sachets for doing an online survey thing but they stopped it😕

I've tried a few, they are all of a muchness. Nikwax is as good as any and cheaper than most - especially if you find a good deal on one of the bulk containers (the whole family have various outdoors muddy AF hobbies so we go through a lot).

I've also tried different methods of applying (soaking in, not rinsing, hand wash etc). Best results seem to be from the washing machine - following the instructions to the letter (funny that!) about pre-rinsing your machine).

I've been using the Nikwax wash in stuff to reproof all my shooting coats over the past few weeks. I've been impressed, lovely bead on them now.

My jacket doesn’t bead up when wet so could do with a DWR treatment. Which is the best option, a spray or a wash in treatment?
