Easy to use technical cleaner with UV protection for cotton, canvas and synthetic tents, awnings marquees, rucksacks, paniers and camera bags.

Overview

Nikwax detergent for all weatherproof textiles made of artificial fibers, cotton and canvas, incl. tents, awnings, sun sails, backpacks, bike, motorcycle- and camera bags.

UV light and dirt are the main causes of material decay in tents. The harmful UV rays "attack" the substance, reduce its tear resistance and bleach it. In addition, dirt impairs the water-repellent impregnation and ensures that the material absorbs water. Also the DWR will not adhere properly to the fabric, making it susceptible to mold.

The Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarWash is a water-based cleaning spray for tents and outdoor equipment made of fabric. It protects against harmful UV rays and simultaneously removes dirt. In contrast to normal detergents, it leaves no residues which could impair the water-repellent DWR impregnation.

Like all technical cleaners from Nikwax, Tent & Gear SolarWash does not just clean - it brings additional advantages: already a single cleaning process improves the resistance of the tent material against harmful UV rays by fifty percent! In addition, the DWR impregnation can be refreshed over up to three cleaning operations. And if a post-impregnation is pending, Tent & Gear SolarWash is the ideal preparation for this. The best: these fantastic features could be achieved without the use of environmentally-persistent, hazardous chemicals!
