Nikwax Cleaning and Waterproofing Products - perfect for cleaning your shooting gear before putting it away for the closed season.

The shooting season is over and it’s time to put away all your shooting clothing but, before you do, be sure to make sure you get your kit cleaned to prolong its life and ensure it is at its best when you get it out again next season.

Nikwax Cleaning Products are simply fantastic. The range of Nikwax products covers cleaning and re-proofing for absolutely everything, from footwear to tents and clothing to horse rugs. The code for Nikwax is simple; green for clean and purple for waterproofing. We would always recommend cleaning your clothing and footwear before re-proofing and did you know that if your waterproof clothing isn’t performing to its best,  it might not need to be reproofed? Often it just needs a good clean as dirt and residue can build up on the surface affecting its ability to breathe and repel water.

At Barnack Country Clothes we stock Nikwax products because they are easy to use, safe, have minimal impact on the environment and do the job intended. Our staff are trained on how to use the products so can advise which product is most suitable for your garments. Our bestsellers include the Nikwax Tech Wash which is suitable for cleaning most items, Nikwax TX Direct Wash-In which is the simple way to re-proof garments in the washing machine and Nikwax Polar Proof – who would have known how simple it is to make fleece highly water repellent before finding this product?

Nikwax will help to extend the life of your outdoor and country clothing whilst keeping it performing at its best whilst you are battling the elements. Click here to view our full range of Nikwax Cleaning and Waterproofing Products.
