Nikwax Down Wash is a specialist cleaner designed to safely clean and revitalise both natural and synthetic down‑filled gear.
It restores loft, improves insulation, and revives breathability without damaging delicate down fibres or stripping essential natural oils. Standard detergents can leave residues that cause down to clump and lose performance; Down Wash effectively removes dirt, body oils, and contaminants while maintaining existing water‑repellent treatments on both the outer fabric and the down fill.
Ideal for jackets, vests, and sleeping bags, it helps ensure reliable performance in cold, damp, or variable conditions. Like all Nikwax products, it is water‑based, non‑hazardous, non‑flammable, and completely free from PFCs, VOCs, and harmful solvents. The 300ml size is well suited to occasional users or single‑item cleaning.
