- Nikwax SoftShell Proof™ is a safe product to use on softshell fabrics. It is WaterBased, non-flammable, contains no harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and is fluorocarbon free.
- Nikwax SoftShell Proof™ has been specifically designed and optimzed for softshell clothing, providing Durable Water Repellency (DWR) whilst maintaining breathability.
- Nikwax SoftShell Proof requires no heat to develop its DWR, so it is not necessary to use a tumble drier for best results.
- Breathable softshell garments are most likely to get sweaty and wet inside when used in damp or wet conditions.
- If the outer fabric absorbs water, the garment can lose up to 70% of its breathability.
- Therefore, the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) on the outer fabric of your softshell jacket must be maintained to ensure comfort.
- It will eventually wear off and need to be renewed with Nikwax SoftShell Proof™.

'WHEN YOU SHOULD USE IT:
- Softshell fabrics combine desirable properties of hardshells and
fleeces to improve user comfort while providing protection in most
conditions.
- Softshells are breathable and stretchy while also being highly
water and wind repellent.
- They fit the shape of the wearer, allow the movement of moisture
away from the body and at the same time they shed water and protect
against wind chill.
- Softshells provide a versatile outer layer that can cope with
most conditions.
- To maintain their water repellency and breathability it is
essential that the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating is maintained.
- Nikwax SoftShell Proof™ has been specifically formulated to
maintain optimum performance of softshell fabrics.
WHY YOU SHOULD USE IT:
- Your softshell garment could be soaking up water just because it
is dirty.
- First, try cleaning it with Nikwax Tech Wash®, and if it is
fairly new, or recently re-waterproofed, the Durable Water Repellency
(DWR) will be revitalized just from cleaning.
- Once the garment has been thoroughly worn, you will need to add
DWR, using Nikwax SoftShell Proof™, after cleaning first with Nikwax
Tech Wash®.
HOW YOU SHOULD USE IT:
- For best results remove all non-washable parts and always clean
item(s) first with Nikwax Tech Wash® in a separate wash cycle.
- No need to dry item(s) before waterproofing.
Top Loading Machine Wash:
- Place maximum of 3 garments in washing machine.
- After the machine has filled add 10fl oz (300ml) of SoftShell®
Proof.
- Set cycle to Heavy and Warm, Low water level.
Front Loading Machine Wash:
- Remove all detergent build-up from the detergent dispenser.
- Place maximum of 2 clean garments in washing machine.
- Add 3fl oz (100ml) of SoftShell® Proof per garment.
- Run 30°C Synthetic cycle and slow spin.
- To maintain waterproofing always wash with Nikwax Tech Wash®.
- Do not use detergents.
By Hand:
- Use gloves (to avoid waterproofing your hands!).
- Immerse 1 clean garment in 6L hand-hot water in sink or bowl.
- Use 2fl oz (50ml) of SoftShell® Proof.
- Agitate to mix, leave to soak for 5-10 minutes, then agitate
thoroughly.
- Rinse with cold water until water runs clear.
- Air dry or tumble dry on a low setting if care label allows.
