Thank you so much for this thorough and detailed process. I have gone back a few times to c clarify some questions i had and you had already covered it. I used oderless spirits here in the U.S.and it worked well on gloves, jackets and scarves. Then my grandmother asked me to waterproof her fabric raincoat. It uses quite a lot of a large jar, but it came out beautully. I will say that after 24 hours in the sealed ar, the solution sealed over more than I expected. I stirred it up as well as i could, and removed some chunks with a fork, and I was back in business. I'll be using this D.I.Y. forever now, thanks again!

Made me chuckle.... the nice thing about winter riding in Canada is that it is almost never wet. The water doesn't get close to the melted state except sometimes for short periods to create a slippery smooth layer of ice hidden under our later falling snow. You don't get wet , except from sweat, and you don't have to wait for the trails to dry up in order to not wreck the trails. Your advice is applicable to our autumn.

So with the treating of one side of material, the non-treated body side is going to soak up water from your body perspiration. To stay truely warm, keep your insulated layer dry from both sides. If you siliconize the outside, you might use a vapor barrier on the body side. Use a polypropylene base layer, then the vapor barrier, then the insulation and then the waterproofing coating or layer. Have fun.

A nice DIY video. I don’t know about the long term chemical exposure question, but I would suggest that getting silicone caulk that is safe for aquaria fabrication might be useful since it tends to be biologically inert which should render it safe for your application. Additionally, it’s probably a good idea to where some sort of eye protection during compounding and application. It doesn’t look like huge health hazard but it’s a possibility. Other than that it seems like useful method for a host of applications. In a couple of “rain rides” I was amazed at the weight of water I was carrying in my riding kit. And the cooling was compounded by evaporation. As long as I was climbing things were okay. The descents were popicling however.

I ride mtb,and I have a different setup than you, but my set up is not as cycling specific. I ride all year long, even in harsh weather, I have winter/rain day shoes, which are Five Ten Freerider High Eps for summer I have freerider High as for jacket, I have a jacket with zipper in the arm pit to elbow area, it's waterproof, and light weight , and pricey but I got it for less than half price in my local shop. when it gets too warm in armpit area I just open up the zippers, but if I get too warm all over, I just take it off. the key to staying warm is layering up. for gloves I size up, so I can fit fleece gloves inside, and nitrile glove between if I need waterproofing, and when I need the breathability but not waterproofing, I just take the Nitrile gloves off. for keeping my ankle area dry, I wear plastic bags, it works great, apart from some bags the color is transferring to the socks.

I like your videos. Tx a lot. Somebody mentioned about potential health risks which made me concerned also. (Respiratory, skin and liver toxicity, also carcinogenic). Just did a quick research on internet (Not quite sure yet, as it needs more browsing) but it seems like silicon sealant is safe once it is cured. All hazardous risks talked about are during the application and curing process. Meaning, skin contact or inhaling the toxin evaporated from silicone sealant before it is dried. Once it is dried, silicone itself doesn’t pose any health risk. And long term toxicity is probably applied to workers who use the product for years without proper protections during the use. If anybody finds any information that clearly talks about silicone health risk after being dried please let us know. Nobody wants to spread the toxin on all of his cloth in washing machine

Not a good idea. The reason for using wool as a performance fabric is that wool is a natural fibre that opens up and closes a bit like a fur cone. If you spray it with silicone then it can’t perform as it should do and thus you have just turned the wool into a less performance fabric that costs a fraction of the price of wool.

In South oz it can get quite cold in winter especially in the southern hills of Adelaide where i am. Victoria and Tasmania moreso. Forecast for uk is looking up as long as your from the midlands down.

I'm going to try this with my bib shorts and rain jacket which leaves a little bit to be desired. It's reversible with dayglow on one side and reflective surface on the other. It might rub off on the inside of I do both sides

I bought the ingredients today. I will try it on my MTB backpack today - let the storm come in! Waschbenzin is the German word.

I treated the Backpack today - It was sunny all day, dammed! I will tell you the result later :)
