Do any of you use NIKWAX TX DIRECT or REVIVEX H2O REPELLENT on your hunting jackets-coats and pants - packs etc if so how well does it repel water and is it long lasting or do you have to constantly re spray :confused: or is there another better product for water proofing :confused: Thks for your replys !:)

Cheers RJ :-D

I just use that Sno-Seal silicone stuff that Wally World sells; seems to work fine and last quite a while.

I think what you are using is the best you can do. I treat my sitka clothing with the products you mention. After my clothes do get wet, I respray them, just like I do with my boots after they get wet. With my sitka gear, treating like this only makes them water resistant, not waterproof.
