Just curious what works for re-coating them to repel snow - on mine the leg/shin area seem to build up with ice / snow when your in Deep snow !

Send ur kilm stuff back if it's getting wet.... Think they fix or replace

Wash it in nikwax.

Wash it in nikwax.

And read the directions.... goretex needs to go in dryer as recommended to help evenly space out the strands in the fabric to regain its water repellency

Different gear takes different measures to re activate the water proofing. Arctiva gear your supposed steam iron after washing to reactivate

would saran wrap work?

From an expert professional point of view.. yes.. with duct tape though... must use duct tape.

ReviveX. It is a spray-on water repellant that I got from the Canadian Klim Distributor.

Revbyu,
We would reccomend the NikWax Duo Pack, this stuff is great and extends the life of your gear.

If it is a Klim coat put in for warranty. Go the Klim site/warranty, fill out the form c/w some pictures, copy of invoice and you will get a case number. With that case number Spirit West or Outdoor Approach can doo a water test. If it leaks, you will get a new one!

Pretty simple procedure for a $300+ jacket.
