Rab Performance Proofer

Reactivate the water repellent finish on waterproof and softshell garments with this specialist wash.

Is your waterproof gear starting to wet out after regular use? Not as effective as when you first bought it? Keep your gear in peak working condition with this reproofing wash-in formula.

After extensive use most waterproof or water-resistant gear will lose its factory applied DWR (durable water repellent) coating due to abrasion. This allows the outer fabric to soak up moisture more easily, affecting breathability and adding unnecessary weight to a garment. Our performance proofer is designed in conjunction with Storm® to restore the DWR coating on your garment leaving a patented, abrasion resistant, PFC-free finish.

Suitable for use on waterproof and water-resistant items, this performance proofer can also be used on DWR treated softshell apparel and insulated items. Find the full instructions on how to use our performance proofer here.
