Maintain the performance and longevity of your down gear with Nikwax Down Wash Direct – the ultimate solution for outdoor enthusiasts braving the diverse conditions of the Australian snow scene. Whether you're tackling the wet and unpredictable snow in the Victorian Alps or enjoying a crisp morning in the New South Wales backcountry, this 300ml cleaner is your essential companion for keeping your down garments and sleeping bags in peak condition.

Dirty down can compromise your warmth and comfort by compressing the fill and attracting moisture, which is a real concern in the moist conditions often found in Australian snowfields. Regularly washing your gear with Nikwax Down Wash Direct not only rejuvenates the loft and enhances the water repellency of your down items but also extends their lifespan. This makes it a prudent investment for skiers, snowboarders, and all winter sports aficionados who demand the best from their equipment.

How to use Nikwax Down Wash Direct is straightforward and ensures your gear remains a reliable ally against the cold. Start by clearing your machine's dispenser of any detergent residue. Then, wash up to two items with 100 ml of Nikwax Down Wash Direct, adhering to the care label instructions, preferably on a low setting. After washing, run multiple spin cycles, gradually increasing the spin speed, to remove as much water as possible. To further enhance waterproofing, apply Nikwax Down Proof now. Finally, dry your items in a tumble dryer on a low setting with tennis balls to help break up down clumps, occasionally pulling the garment out to manually separate the down. By incorporating Nikwax Down Wash Direct into your gear care routine, you ensure that your down jackets and sleeping bags remain indispensable allies in your winter adventures, keeping you warm, dry, and ready to conquer the slopes with confidence.
