Cleaner -- would pass and wash in DWR restorer works As far as I know, normal clothes detergent will work just as well on all except camo that need detergents without brighteners. In fact a Gore's phone line said they didn't know any advantage in using "special detergent for gore-tex." The DWR restorer worked very well on tight weaved synthetics (>9 weaves per sq. mm), even non-gore-tex fabrics. On less tight weaved (4 cross per mm on PE/PA blend fabric gore-tex), the DWR restorer helped but fabrics still wetted-out with lots of water. The washin DWR restore was extended by soaking into only the outsurface instead of a complete soak of inner and outter surfaces. The tight weave didn't need ironing, but ironing did help on the coarser weaved fabric.

Better than Nikwax recently tried refurbishing two old raincoats. Nikwax on a Patagonia coat (their recommendation) and Granger's on a Marmot coat (again the manufacturer's recommendation. The Granger's worked a bit better, water beading much more convincingly than it did on the Nikwax treated coat.
