Product Information

How Nikwax Rug Wash™ protects your animal.

Nikwax Rug Wash™ is a highly effective cleaner, which also revitalises existing Durable Water Repellency (DWR) and improves breathability. This protects your animal from getting wet in the rain and prevents the build-up of condensation inside rugs and coats, maintaining the comfort of your animal.

Nikwax Rug Wash™ leaves a flexible water repellent treatment on individual fibres allowing moisture vapour to pass through, maintaining breathability, while protecting your animal from getting wet in the rain.

Nikwax Rug Wash™ is the safe way to thoroughly clean your waterproof animal rugs and coats, optimizing their performance and extending their useable life. Washing machine application is quick, easy, and ensures that the whole rug is thoroughly cleaned.

Always check your washing machines maximum weight limit before washing rugs. For large items we recommend using a commercial laundromat.
