I've got a Pace eVent jacket. Now getting on a bit. The waterproofing has completely gone on it - it wets out after 2 or 3 minutes.

It's been steam-ironed post-wash as per the washing instructions, which should reactivate the surface treatment that makes water bead and run off, but it no longer does.

Any ideas? Wash in waterproofer? Or will that wreck the membrane?

Thanks,

Jon

I use the grangers wash in stuff and then tumble dry - it lasts for a while - how long seems to be dependent on number of times it's washed, tbh.
