Outdoor Water Shield 10.5 oz Waterproofing Spray – Heavy Duty Water Repellent for Outdoor Fabric, Patio Cushions, Tents, Boots, Umbrellas & More, Dries Odorless and Won’t Stiffen Material

I spray my outdoor fabric cushions with this each year in the spring and rain does not penetrate fabric all summer. I think it's a very good product.

Best water proofing product I have tried. Used it on my coat to visit Scotland and Ireland, and it kept me dry even in a down pour.

I put this on a canvas work jacket. The color did become a deeper brown so test it out first before committing to the whole garment. I used two cans to do two coats. The cloth became water-repellant, not water-proof. We'll worth it.

No lingering smell and it dried quickly. I used it on my patio furniture cushions.

I have a pannier that can hold a suit, but the pannier is not waterproof--it comes with a rain cover. However, the water from my tires splashes up on the underside of my pannier and on heavy rain days, the rain soaks through and wets my clothing. My pannier has fabric covering similar to that of a suitcase. So I tried this product, skeptical that it would work. I used two coatings from the get go, making sure to wait 4 hours for each coating to dry. Result: first day of heavy rain (and I mean heavy rain), my clothes were dry and the pannier was in great shape. This worked wonderfully, and I really didn't expect it to. Later, I used it on my soft-shell jacket, and it worked well there too (of course, once I wash it, I'd have to re-apply. I was just curious to see if it would work). So I then used it on my shoe covers and my gloves. Not so great on the gloves, but hey, as long as it worked perfectly on the pannier, that's what I needed.

Good stuff.

I used up one entire can on my Carhartt winter work coat. It became very slightly less absorbent than it had been before I sprayed it. But it still didn't bead water. So I bought a second can, and used that up on the coat too. As you can see in the pic, the coat now partially beads water. But in the dark spots, some of the water still soaks in. Had I known it required $25 of spray to make my old coat water only slightly water resistant, I might have just bought a new coat. But if the spray treatment remains effective for the remainder of the life of the coat, i guess it's worth it? Maybe the spray works better on synthetic materials? I think my coat is mostly cotton, but it was water resistant when new. BTW Do not even think of spraying indoors!!!!!!!! This spray is toxic as heck when wet! I sprayed it outside while wearing a respirator. And it took a several days after each spraying for the chemical smell to fade out, and I had to leave the coat in the garage to dry, so it wouldn't stink up the house.
