Previous Feedback
Comments: I have two 10 year old Rambo blankets/sheets that have lost their waterproofing over time and after being washed in mild regular laundry detergent. I used this at the end of last winter before storing them for the summer. This winter the waterproofing worked very well, we had several multi-day weather fronts come through with rain, snow, sleet and the horses stayed dry during 24 hour turnout with the newly waterproofed blankets. I have since bought another bottle to keep on the waterproofing on the older blankets, and also will be using the rug wash so I don't damage the waterproofing on my new blankets.
