Granger's Perfomance Wash/Premium Detergent for Outerwear/ 10oz, Performance, 300 ml, Transparent

Great product. Doesn't really have a scent; it was really easy to use with my arc'teryx jacket and other gore-tex garments and it did not affect the jackets looks at all. It also didn't even affect the water-proof coating!

After much research, I selected this liquid detergent to wash my expensive technical clothing, and rain gear. It does the job, nicely.

I bought this along with the down wash to use on winter gear before applying Granger's extreme repel. After chatting online with a representative from Granger's (quick and thorough customer service) I decided to use the performance wash on the snowpants, down jacket, and gloves that needed to be treated for water repellancy. The wash was easy to use. I washed all the items together with 2 capfuls of the wash. I hung them to dry for about 30 minutes them sprayed the extreme repel on the items. I rubbed it into the fabric gently for a minute or so and popped the items into the dryer with tennis balls. I dried until each item felt dry (I used a heat seeing but don't remember how high). I tested each item under a faucet and the water beads off. Next is to try it in the snow. I did clean my washer before using this product, as I clean it every 2 months or so. The representative I spoke with said even running the washer with no detergent before using would suffice.

I used the performance wash and the waterproofing spray. I must say I'm impressed. I had a number of technical running vests and jackets. All are fairly old and have been washed many times in regular washes. None have much if any water resistance left. I washed them and when they were slightly damp I sprayed them with the waterproofer. Then put them all in the dryer and tested them when they came out. Water ran off each one like a ducks back. I was impressed. I washed and proofed 4 items and have plenty of product left over. I would guess I can get another two washes and waterproofing from these with about 4-5 items in each.

Used this on my Arc'teryx Atom Lt and various other sensitive outdoor gear. I followed the directions on package. It left my gear odorless, soft, and clean. Only criticism I can make is that it might be too mild for base layer wash, as the detergent did not fully remove armpit deodorant residue (you might need to pre-treat or scrub before wash). I applied Granger's Performance Repel after washing DWR coated gear. Worked great! Rain drops just beaded up as if the jacket were new. Yes, it is pricey; but, it works and gives you the ease of mind that it won't damage the performance of your gear. Look for it to go on sale, by in bulk, or as a combo to save money.I would purchase this again and I do recommend its use.

My husband is a fly fishing guide, we bought this for all his Simms attire, made 20 yr old rain coats look Brand spanking new. My new go to!!

Top notch and super easy to use. If you own expensive outerwear or base layers, this is the only detergent you should be using. Pair it with the Granger's Xtreme Repel and your gear will be working like off the rack new for years to come. This season I washed two Patagonia down sweaters, a Patagonia nano air hoody, two north face jackets and a light jacket and they all came out spotless and looking brand new. Before I hung them to dry, I hit them with the Xtreme Repel and every jacket has been working top notch in rain, sleet and snow since. This is a great product that I highly recommend!

Like one other reviewer, the bottle came without the green cap. But I didn't want to me with return and reorder. I found that some bottle caps in the house fit, so I just ended up using it. I used the little cups that come on medicine bottles to measure it.The title used to say this cleans down, which is why I ordered it. But the description mentions technical clothing, so I wasn't sure if it would work on a down comforter. Turns out it did. It did not seem to take the oil off the down, but did clean the outer fabric pretty well. The comforter cover is kinda natural cotton colored and came out whiter.The title no longer mentions down, so this is probably not the right product. But I will use it on my down backpacking sleeping bag and other down comforter. The first comforter has some tiny holes that the down leaks out of and some feathers came out and floated to the top of the water during the wash. That's how I know it didn't mess up the oil covering the down, or at least didn't take too much off.
