Maintaining Your Down Outerwear
-
-
Step 1:
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).

Unzip float tube cover. Soak the tip of rag in soapy water and dab over the area suspected to be leaking. The hole will produce bubbles. Mark the spot with a pen, clean off the soapy residue then allow area to dry.

Before washing, tie rope into a Daisy Chain to minimize kinking and tangles. Double the rope by bringing both ends together. Tie in a knot, leaving the loose ends in a short tail.
