Cleaning

    Prior to washing, apply cleaner directly to heavily soiled areas. Close all zippers and Velcro® tabs.

    Step 2:

    Fill sink or tub with just enough warm water to submerge item; add ReviveX Down Cleaner. Compress item to remove air and place in water.

  • 

    Step 3:

    Rinse item repeatedly until water runs clear (at least 3 times). Gently compress or roll item (do not wring) to expel water.

  • 

    Step 4:

    Place item in washing machine for 2 spin cycles to remove excess water before drying.

  • 

    Step 5:

    Before drying, apply ReviveX Spray-On Water Repellent to the outer shell fabric. Apply liberally to shoulders, cuffs and zipper areas. Dry garment by itself in a large dryer (it needs room to tumble freely). Use heat setting recommended by garment care label (medium heat if possible).

    Now is a good time to apply a fresh water repellent treatment. Place wet garment on a hanger. Spray ReviveX Spray-On Water Repellent or ReviveX Spray-On Water Repellent for Soft Shells on the garment exterior.
