Review: Great - Amazing. Works very well for gym kit, including old stuff with lingering smell.
Review: Better than regular laundry detergents, but not a perfect solution - Regular laundry detergents don't really do a good job on the smell of sweat, much to the wife's chagrin. There are some cleaning products out there which claim to work but actually just mask the smell with a stronger more pleasant smell - one I tried simply made my kit give off the aroma of oregano very powerfully - a bit weird to smell like a herb garden. This detergent does have some scent to it, and you can smell it a bit on the kit after it's been washed, but it's not all that strong. It does seem to be doing a considerably better job than regular laundry detergents, but there are still areas where if I sniff I can still get the sweat quite clearly. So it's not perfect, but still pretty good. One thing I would be concerned about, given that I try to use eco-friendly detergents as much as possible, is to how this stands in that regard. Given that it probably has to use some powerful substances to do its job, one might suspect that it isn't particularly eco-friendly. Also, because my hands were a bit tingly after handling the kit after washing, that also makes me wonder what is in here and whether it will cause skin irritation on my body as a result of wearing the kit. One eco-friendly thing to try perhaps before resorting to something like this, and which I have found to be helpful albeit not quite as good as this detergent, is soaking the kit in bicarbonate of soda for a while before washing.

A: No. Nikwax treatments do not change the colour, texture or feel of garments.

**Q: Why choose Nikwax Sports Refresh?**

Excellent product. It's a bit strange as it only has a slight fragrance however I would rather that than the awful smell of old perspiration!
