Has anyone on here used nikwax for waterproofing a non waterproof softshell? i currently have a light windstopper soft shell that I LOVE but I would love even more if it was waterproof. my current rain gear is falling apart so it would be great if i could just use my soft shell and buy some rain pants seperate.

my main concern is it being fully waterproof. i work as a bike messenger so sometimes i am in the rain for up to 8 hours. i cant afford to have something that is water resistant and the water gets through after a few hours.

i called nikwax and they assured me that it would be fully waterproof. but i would love to hear from someone who has actually used it. anyone on here?

thanks
