Not used that particular product but use a fair bit of their other stuff. On my phone so struggle post links etc but on their website the give away samples if you do a quiz. Worth a look, the price is right.

Hello and yeah I did managed to blag a sample some time back but held off using it and kept in my stash of useful items that may come in use one day. I'm a bit reluctant to use it on the grounds of I've not used it before...... on a plus note Nikwax said it would be ok........? just wanted to know if anyone else has used it and how good was it?

It is good stuff, not only for waterproofing but also has great UV resistance, I used to spray it on the dacron fabric wings of my microlight, definately prolonged the fabrics life compared to untreated
