    • Spray On Waterproof

      Original Spray-On Formula

      ReviveX® Spray-On Water Repellent is a ‘universal’ application for hard shell outerwear as it only treats the outside of the garment, leaving interior (possibly wicking) liners untreated. The spray-on version is also ideal for treating down and synthetic insulated garments and sleeping bags. One benefit of the spray is that you can concentrate heaviest on areas where water repellent finishes (DWR) tend to wear first, such as the shoulders of a jacket or the seat of a pair of pants.

    • Spray On Waterproof for Soft Shells

      Spray On Formula for Soft Shells

      Soft shells are more breathable and flexible than traditional hard shell waterproof breathable garments. ReviveX Spray-On Water Repellent for Soft Shells is specifically engineered to deeply penetrate soft shell fabric’s thick weave for maximum water repellency.

    • How ReviveX Works

      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.

  • Re-Coat Tent Floors

    Re-Coat Tent Floors

    Re-coat worn areas on your tent floor with Tent Sure™ Tent Floor Sealant. Apply to the coated side of the fabric (the inside) using a foam paintbrush. For best results apply Tent Sure in a thin film, using even, sweeping motions to avoid puddles. A single thin coat works best.
  • Boot Sole Tip

    Boot Sole Tip

    TRUE OR FALSE? Campfires cause boot sole delaminations? True. Sitting at the campfire with your feet towards the fire may make you comfortably warm, but your boot soles could be close to melting. This can easily cause failure of the sole’s glue bond. If your boot soles are peeling, use Freesole® Urethane Adhesive for a permanent fix.
