Scotchgard Outdoor Water Shield

Scotchgard Fabric Water Shield is a lifesaver when you have kids and pets to help keep clothing and household fabrics safe from spills and light rain. The spray applies evenly and dries quickly, leaving fabrics water-repellent without altering their texture or color. It can be used it on jackets, cushions, and even outdoor pillows, and it really helps liquids bead up instead of soaking in. The two-pack is excellent for stocking up or treating multiple items at once, which makes it very convenient. I also appreciate that the protection lasts for a long time, so I don’t have to reapply constantly. Overall, it’s an easy, effective way to extend the life of fabrics while keeping them looking clean and fresh.

Great product cleans very well. I had spots and many stains all over my carpet and it took everything up with ease. I am very pleased. It looks like I had my carpet cleaned and it was just spot treated. I would definitely recommend this and it’s a great product for the prize.

So, I have used a variety of waterproofing products before -- mainly for the purpose of treating coats, boots, and camping material. One thing to always look for in any waterproofing product is a statement of intended use. Scotchgard heavy duty water shield is a good all-around product for re-waterproofing or providing additional waterproofing protection for materials and products already designed to protect from the elements. Examples include certain types of leather, nylon, polyester, etc. This product will not magically waterproof porous or water absorbent material. Case in point, I read that someone was disappointed with the product because they tried to waterproof their pillowcase and was shocked when it didnt. Couple thoughts on that...if you're in a situation where your pillowcase and/or other gear is getting soaked, it's likely that no amount of waterproofing is going to help you (e.g. a monsoon, falling in a river, lake, or stream, or a 40 day deluge (aka also see "The Flood" story in Genesis). Additionally, why would you want to lay your face on a product that is synthetically made to repel water and that has a poison control warning if ingested or sprayed in your eyes? Yeah...moving on. I most recently bought and used this product to re-waterproof a rainjacket/windbreaker I have owned for about two years and to help protect a new tent I bought a week ago. I used a total of four cans for an entire 6 person tent and jacket. The product took only a short amount of time to dry (was dry to the touch in about an hour or two...and I soaked my jacket and tent/rainfly with this stuff), and it was put to the test not but three to four hours after application. As with the many other times I have used this product, it worked beautifully. It literally poured down rain with wind gusts of 40 and 50 mph, complemented by lightning, thunder, and even a little hail thrown into the mix, for two days straight. Not a drop of water in my new tent, despite the ground being completely soaked and the appocoliptic torrent of rain that was dumped on me. And neither my tent, nor my jacket, were discolored or stained by the product. Now, as for cons, there are few. The product does need to be reapplied at least once yearly if being used on gear that is used on a fairly regular basis. I camp all four seasons, so my jackets, camp gear, and boots are genuinely put to the test; however, it's unreasonable to think that when you waterproof something that it will last forever. Also, there is a slight odor to the product when first applied, so be sure to apply in a safe, well-ventilated space. I usually apply outside or in my garage with the garage doors open. The odor is similar to WD-40, so oily mixed with a bit of manliness and can-do attitude. But what waterproof spray doesnt have some kind of chemical odor? The final verdict: when used the way it is intended to be used, Scotchgard Heavy Duty Water Shield works like a charm and will likely make your life a whole heck of a lot more comfortable for those occasions when staying dry means the difference between being comfortable or being cold, damp, and miserable. You will have to reapply at least once a year if your gear is being used regularly. There is an odor to the stuff, but wears off eventually...usually a few days or less if left to dry in a well-ventilated space. The product is definitely a value and worth the buy when comparing the low cost to the high reward of staying as dry as one possibly can in the elements. Cheers!

STINKS to high heaven! But easy to air out for 2 days. I deep dove in to the search for "best fabric protector" and did not arrive at any one brand being 100% "the best". Being a 3M fan, I went with Scotch Guard. LIght colored fabrics and me do NOT get along. I wear mostly black. I was going to replace my heavily soiled and stained Cashmere (very light tan) LEXUS floor mats with black ones, but decided to stay with Cashmere, but with FOUR coats of Scotch Guard. I bought two cans. One can was enough for four coats of SG on a complete new set of Cashmere Genuine Lexus floor mats for my "new" used 2007 Lexus ES350. Apparently, silicone is not the primary ingredient. But the variety of petroleum products in it are just awful smelling. Count on airing the mats OUTSIDE for two days before using them in an enclosed space. After two days 99% of the odor is gone. BUY this product despite the very fleeting temporary odor. Just something to be aware of. It goes away 100%. Value? If it works, well yeah. Effectiveness? How in the heck would I know? I just applied it. But 3M has more labs and scientists and experience than any other company selling similar products. So....there is that. Right? The car is too nice to have black mats that don't match anything. I don' live around mud or filth, so rubber all weather mats are ugly and not needed. My Lexus Cashmere mats even came with brand new Toyota clips to keep them in place. If the weather turns nasty for any kind of storm, I keep the old driver's side mat to throw down temporarily over my Scotch Guarded new one. IDK how to clean then without removing the Scotch Guard. That's why I bought TWO cans. I have a sealed can in reserve. I think one can clean light soil, several times without having to refresh the Scotch Guard. Still learning about the after care. The brand new mats look AMAZING and make the car look fabulous inside. They might as well be white, the tan is so light, therefore VERY prone to showing soiling. I DONT think they are going to STAIN with four coats of SG on each mat. I expect to re-do (clean, strip, and re-apply the Scotch Guard) the driver's side mat periodically as it gets heavily soiled. The other three mats should last at least a year or more without having to re apply the SG.

I used this product to spray on my kids shoes! My teenagers are very rough on shoes and I was told to use this as a barrier to keep them clean. I was optimistic and I’m glad I was, it works great! Product came in quickly and I will buy again!

I got this to waterproof my hiking boots before a trip to the PNW. My feet stayed 100% dry in rain and more rain and even a little snow. I've since used it on all my boots, ugg type shoes, and tennis shoes. I'm amazed that it doesn't show on any of them. It's super easy to use. Just spray and let dry! I haven't had to retreat (and I sprayed my 1st pair of shoes almost 2 years ago).

This is the good stuff. Bought this for our new couch. Works great.

The product is good, but I have ordered 2 cans, only received 1.

bonne quantitee

Seems to work, only time will tell if it lasts Slow delivery - Evri (Hermes) are absolutely dismal, always at least 2 days late

Se lo apliqué a la tela de una chamarra y cuando seco hice la prueba de hechar agua y la resbaló sin problema .
