When it rains, waterproof blankets and coats are used to keep them dry and comfortable.<\/p>\n<p>It is important that these waterproof fabrics allow moisture vapor to pass through them, or \u2018breathe\u2019; otherwise moisture will condense on the inside of the item. Additionally, if the outer fabric absorbs water and \u2018wets out\u2019, the item\u2019s breathability will be reduced. Both of these situations will lead to your animal getting clammy, cold and uncomfortable.<\/p>\n<p>The breathability of blankets and coats can be maintained by ensuring the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) is kept in good condition. Nikwax Rug Wash will revitalize the DWR to keep your animals dry and comfortable. After some time, DWR can wear away. When that happens, use Rug Proof to re-waterproof.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n                                                                                            <\/div>\n                                            <div class=\"items-2 image-content-block__item image-content-block__item--image items-center\">\n                            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/12\/rug-wash-proof-what-for-en-us.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Rug Wash Proof What For En Us\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/12\/rug-wash-proof-what-for-en-us.webp 1000w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/12\/rug-wash-proof-what-for-en-us-300x300.webp 300w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/12\/rug-wash-proof-what-for-en-us-150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/12\/rug-wash-proof-what-for-en-us-768x768.webp 768w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/12\/rug-wash-proof-what-for-en-us-600x600.webp 600w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/12\/rug-wash-proof-what-for-en-us-100x100.webp 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>                        <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n    \n\n\n<section\n    id=\"video-block-1\"\n    class=\"video-block video-block--embed\"\n>\n        <div class=\"video-block__wrapper\" data-embed=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MeqKeONs5mg?autoplay=1&#038;rel=0&#038;modestbranding=1\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"video-block__poster\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/MeqKeONs5mg\/maxresdefault.jpg\"\n            onerror=\"this.onerror=null;this.src='https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/MeqKeONs5mg\/hqdefault.jpg';\"            alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\">\n        \n        <button class=\"video-block__play\" type=\"button\" aria-label=\"Play Video\">\n            <span class=\"video-block__play-arrow\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/span>\n            <span class=\"video-block__play-text\">Play Video<\/span>\n        <\/button>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n\n\n    \t\n                <section \n            id=\"image-content-block-2\"\n            class=\"image-content-block\" \n            style=\"background-color: #184183\"\n        >\n                        \n            <div class=\"container\">\n                <div class=\"row items-center row__reverse\">\n                    <div class=\"items-2 image-content-block__item image-content-block__item--content\">\n                                                                            <h2>Rug Proof Instructions<\/h2>\n<p><strong>IMPORTANT:<\/strong> Shake bottle before use.

Nikwax waterproofing treatments are highly effective and long lasting, but how long you need to go between waterproofing depends on how much you are using the item and in what conditions. If your item is visibly dirty or no longer repelling water, it\u2019s a great sign to clean it and then re-waterproof.<\/p>\n<p>TLDR: We recommend that you wash and re-waterproof your gear at least once a year. Or at least once a season if you\u2019re a heavy user.<\/p>\n                            <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section \n    id=\"stats-block-1\" \n    class=\"stats\" \n>\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"row\">\n                            \t\n                    <div class=\"stats__item\">\n                        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"174\" height=\"174\" src=\"https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-1.webp\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Badge 1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-1.webp 174w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-1-150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-1-100x100.webp 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 174px) 100vw, 174px\" \/>                        <h3>Carbon  Balanced<\/h3>\n                    <\/div>\n                \t\n                    <div class=\"stats__item\">\n                        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"175\" height=\"175\" src=\"https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-2.webp\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Badge 2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-2.webp 175w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-2-150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-2-100x100.webp 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 175px) 100vw, 175px\" \/>                        <h3>Employee Owned since 2022<\/h3>\n                    <\/div>\n                \t\n                    <div class=\"stats__item\">\n                        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"163\" height=\"163\" src=\"https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-4.webp\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Badge 4\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-4.webp 163w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-4-150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-4-100x100.webp 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 163px) 100vw, 163px\" \/>                        <h3>Always PFAS-Free and Aerosol Free<\/h3>\n                    <\/div>\n                \t\n                    <div class=\"stats__item\">\n                        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"166\" height=\"166\" src=\"https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-5.webp\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Badge 5\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-5.webp 166w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-5-150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/nikwax.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/badge-5-100x100.webp 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 166px) 100vw, 166px\" \/>                        <h3>100% post-consumer recycled plastic<\/h3>\n                    <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n    \t\n                <section \n            id=\"image-content-block-3\"\n            class=\"image-content-block\" \n            style=\"background-color: #184183\"\n        >\n                        \n            <div class=\"container\">\n                <div class=\"row items-center \">\n                    <div class=\"items-2 image-content-block__item image-content-block__item--content\">\n                                                                            <h3>Nikwax have been outdoor industry leaders in producing sustainable aftercare since 1977.
