Is this product effective and safe for water repellent treatment on the SOFT TOP of a KIA SPORTAGE?

I used it on my canvass boat cover. Works great. On the bottle it says multiple uses to include marine canvass, convertible car tops, furniture etc. So I have to believe it's go to go for you.

It can clean the boat cover; I'm not certain about re-waterproofing. The label states that the product: "Cleans safely, revitalizes breathability, and water repellency". Nikwax makes another product for waterproofing clothing and gear. For equipment: Nikwax Tent and Gear Solarproof.

I just bought it this winter. It has been out in the sleet and snow for just very short times, going from car to teachers studio. I have had no leakage under these circumstances. In the spring I plan on spraying it will a water repellent, just in case.

I would not recommend it. It will delude the treatment, thus makeing the application on the material less effective and or water resistant. Not to worry you can always re-coat the material.

I think it was listed as "water repellent" and I've had it out in the rain and nothing soaked through but I think I will probably give it a good spray of Scotchgard before next winter just to be safe.

I have used it on a high end Monaco motorhome....2 cans worth over a long period. We removed a 3M invisible bra product that was really damaged by sun and age. The residue of adhesive was difficult and the remover worked very well. I did use it in conjunction with plastic razor blades. Hope that helps. TB

Yes. I use it in the winter time to wash mild accumulations of dirt and road salt off my 911 and BMW. Follow the directions -- don't rub hard to avoid scratches and then lightly buff the area dry with a clean cloth. Use two towels at all times and change them out if they get too soiled (the cleaning one) or too wet (the drying one). Good product.

There is no water proofing out there, that I know of. But, yes, this will help "repel" water to some degree. And it is just as good as any of the more expensive waxes out there for distressing-that's what I got it to do. I just don't like the fact that it's a solvent, comes with warnings and hazards-and has a strong solvent odor, as well. But they all do. And it dissipates, over time.

This is the best tire dressing I have ever used, and I am a "detail junkie" owning 3 premium sports cars. When applied on a foam or microfiber pad applicator in a thin coat, the Meguiars Endurance Gel does not spin off unto the car panels. The gel will endure water from rain, and lasts much longer on the tires than a tire foam, or tire dressing spray. It may take you a few times to get to know the product and application. Thinner is better when appyling. One bottle will many tire applications. When applied on a foam or microfiber pad, this sized bottle will do many, many tire applications. I suggest you try it. Wear rubber or nytril gloves, as the product is thick.

About as effective as any other good quality nozzle. In other words....look into a pressure washer my friend.I like the "pam" suggestion though...along that line I wonder if rainx would bond to the car well enough to work without the buttery scent ;)

You're overestimating the lasting power of a very thin coat of wax. The Klassee sealant is the best car paint protectorant I have ever used, as with ALL waxing or sealant products it has a solvent effect to remove oxidation, old wax and other surface pollutants which are then removed when you wipe away the glaze. I do what a lot of others have done and it you have some muscle power put the sealant on wipe away the glaze then use Mothers, or any name brand Brazillian Carnuba wax on top of the sealant. This is PURE CARNUBA, not products with Carnuba in them. EXTREMELY important. With this top coat added to the Klassee you'll have the highest gloss finish you can get. You'll thank me. Oh and I don't sell anything, I'm not a shill, just a car enthusiast living in an extreme enviorment, Phoenix, AZ

Not sure what you'd be using this on a car seat for, but this is made more for surfaces that AREN'T flexible. I think it would begin flaking, and if this is for a child's car seat, definitely NOT a good product to use. If this is for fabric, try using a water repellent spray made for fabrics instead.

I have only used it for my house and it seems to have worked there. Ingredients don't seem to be harmful so give it a try. Mr. Kane seemed to have good luck. Worth a try. If you park in a garage try spraying around the perimeter of your car on the floor.

This item is both water repellent as well as resistant with a 3 year warranty. I wouldn't know how well that protection would hold up if you put it in a washer. You might have to buy something to re-treat it. I just bought this item recently, so I haven't had the need to clean it. I would recommend you try contacting the manufacturer direct.

I have used this product, following directions to the letter, on everything but the awning of my Winnebago View; metal, fiberglass, chrome, headlamps, etc, without any ill effects. It is far more effective than any other bug and tar removal product I have used. Only hassle is when a second treatment is needed (IE after three weeks on the road). It works best when applied to a dry surface so one must dry or wait to dry before applying second time.

I think it would work well on anything intricate, I personally have only used on model cars and it works well. It does reseal very well, good product thus far.

I've had mine out prospecting in the rain several times and it seems to repel water pretty well. Over time, I'll just spray some Scotch Guard on it to maintain it's repellency if needed.
