My not so weatherproof jacket.

Postby Chitchats » Sat Mar 26, 2011 5:20 pm

Ive got a Teknik textile that has served me very well, however now after 9 Yrs it is shite in wet weather :cry: .

Is there a "good" product to reseal my trusty mate? (besides a new one)

Any experiences?

Depends on what makes it waterproof. If its a liner, your screwed. If it's a coating, the BMW stuff is great. Clean it, spray it on, let it dry, waterproof again.
