NST Performance Care: The Technical Wash
Why Specialized Care Matters
Ordinary laundry detergents are designed for everyday clothes, not technical gear. They often contain softeners, perfumes, and optical brighteners that leave a "hydrophilic" (water-attracting) residue behind. This residue clogs the microscopic pores of your membrane, killing its breathability and causing the fabric to "wet out."
NST Wash is different. It is a technical detergent specifically formulated to remove dirt, salt, and oils without leaving any residue. By cleaning the membrane properly, you restore the garment’s ability to "breathe," keeping you dry from the inside out.
Product Highlights
-
Maintains Technical Integrity: Cleans without altering the mechanical properties of waterproof membranes.
-
Residue-Free: Rinses away completely to ensure maximum moisture vapor escape.
-
Highly Versatile: Effective for both machine washing and manual soaking.
-
The Perfect Duo: Ideally followed by an NST Waterproofing Spray to restore the outer DWR (Durable Water Repellent) layer.

-
Plant-Based: Uses plant-derived surfactants and natural enzymes.
-
Sustainable Packaging: 100% recycled PET bottle.
