    How ReviveX® Works

    All rainwear is factory treated on the outside with a special water repellent spray called DWR (for “Durable Water Repellent”). Over time that treatment wears off causing fabrics to “wet out” – which reduces breathability and creates excess condensation, making you damp and cold. ReviveX water repellents are unique because they bond to both the fabric and any remaining factory DWR creating the most durable water repellent finish available.
