{"product_id":"rug-proof-nikwax-rug-proof","title":"Rug Proof","description":"\u003cp\u003eYour animal is most likely to get clammy and uncomfortable in wet or damp conditions if the breathability of their waterproof rug or coat is impaired. If the outer fabric absorbs water, the rug\/coat can lose up to 70% of its breathability. Therefore, the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) on the outer fabric of your animal rug\/coat must be maintained to ensure comfort. It will eventually wear off and need to be renewed with Nikwax Rug Proof™.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eWaterproof fabrics need to be breathable…\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome animals, including dogs and horses, can be subjected to the elements while outside. When it rains, waterproof blankets and coats are used to keep them dry and comfortable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is important that these waterproof fabrics allow moisture vapor to pass through them, or ‘breathe’; otherwise moisture cannot evaporate, so will condense on the inside of the item. Additionally, if the outer fabric absorbs water and ‘wets out’ the item’s breathability will be reduced. Both of these situations will lead to your animal getting clammy, cold and uncomfortable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe breathability of rugs and coats can be maintained by ensuring the Durable Water Repellency (DWR) is kept in good condition. Nikwax Rug Proof™ adds DWR, which prevents water absorption, while maintaining breathability, keeping your animals dry and comfortable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBreathable waterproofs aren’t just for humans…\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone who is outside when it is raining will benefit from breathable waterproof clothing. This includes horses out grazing and dogs being taken for a walk in the rain!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nikwax","offers":[{"title":"1Litre","offer_id":69656070684706,"sku":"273101USSTANDARD","price":10.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5L","offer_id":69656070717474,"sku":"275501USSTANDARD","price":36.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/6508\/7010\/files\/98f6b93d2602f2c43103ada23c3271fe.webp?v=1793951717","url":"https:\/\/nikwaxs.it.com\/products\/rug-proof-nikwax-rug-proof","provider":"nikwaxs.it.com\t","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
