Reproofing

Just reproofed a 10+ year old Rab eVent drillum jacket using fabsil gold; results are seemingly amazing! unlike the use of regular nikwax or granger products specifically designed for eVent/Goretex. Has anyone else experience of using this solution usually the preserve of tents/backpacks for reproofing higher-end waterproofs?

Views appreciated.

Re: Reproofing

No doubt the Fabsil Gold will waterproof the jacket but it will also stop it being as breathable. Which is why it is recommended for things like awnings tents and marqueeees because they are not breathable.
