Nikwax Rug Proof – Horse Blanket Waterproofing Treatment

Restore waterproof protection and extend the life of your horse's turnout blankets.

A good turnout blanket is an investment in your horse's comfort and protection. Over time, regular use, washing, and exposure to the elements can reduce a blanket's ability to repel water. Nikwax Rug Proof is specially formulated to restore water repellency to waterproof horse blankets and turnout rugs, helping keep your horse dry and comfortable in wet weather.

Designed for use on suitable synthetic horse blankets, Rug Proof adds a durable water-repellent finish while maintaining the fabric's breathability. It's an effective way to refresh an older blanket or maintain one that's still in good condition.

Whether you're preparing blankets for fall rain or another Canadian winter, proper waterproofing helps keep your equipment performing season after season.

Protect Your Investment

Horse blankets take a beating from rain, snow, mud, and everyday wear. When water stops beading on the surface and begins soaking into the outer fabric, it may be time to renew the water-repellent finish.

For best results, clean your blanket first with Nikwax Rug Wash, then apply Rug Proof to restore water repellency.

At Alberta Carriage Supply, we believe good equipment deserves proper care. Maintaining your horse's blankets helps you get more dependable service from them while keeping your horse comfortable and protected.

For synthetic waterproof horse blankets and turnout rugs. Rug Proof restores surface water repellency but cannot repair damaged waterproof membranes, worn coatings, or leaking seams. Always follow the manufacturer's care instructions.
