Product Details
＋Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarWash® can extend the life of tents by 50 percent, just by cleaning! It is a water-based cleaning spray for tents and other outdoor equipment that protects against UV degradation whilst removing dirt.
Great for cleaning and improving UV protection on:
- Tents, packs, panniers, awnings and more
All Nikwax packaging is made from 100% recycled plastic and is recyclable (#2 plastic) in New Zealand.
Ultraviolet (UV) light and dirt are the two most significant sources of damage for tents. UV light attacks the fabric, reducing its strength and causing fading. Dirt interferes with the water repellency of the tent, causing the fabric to absorb water.
Nikwax’s Tent & Gear SolarWash® is a water-based cleaning spray for tents and other outdoor equipment that protects against UV degradation whilst removing dirt, and unlike normal detergents, does not leave behind residues that damage water repellency.
