Although I have about 5 weeks fishing left it has got too cold for me to wear my Simms Guide Waders.
I have, (my wife has) washed them at the hand wash cycle in the machine. I have dried them in the garage. Now should I treat them with Goretex reviver?
Revivex is not available in the UK does anyone know what is in it?
Should I send them to be tested, the suffered from "dampness" when wading to 1" of the top for a day.
Ideas thoughts, Simms suggest
Applying Water Repellent Treatment
After the waders are washed and thoroughly rinsed, saturate the outside of the waders with Revivex® or other water repellent treatment. Allow product to drip-dry. "Set" the treatment with heat using a blow dryer or iron (low setting), avoiding the stockingfoot attachment area.
Ironing waders anyone or their wife done it?
