When water no longer beads up on the outside of the material but rather a wet spot develops, it’s time to re-waterproof. We’ll show you how to test your waterproofing in just a few simple steps.
Items Needed
Spray bottle with water
Step One
Hang your garment on a clothes hanger and fill your spray bottle with water.
Step Two
Spray the surface of the garment several times.
Step Three
If the water “beads up” and doesn’t soak into the surface, it is not necessary to re-waterproof your garment.
