The milky-white concentrate is diluted with water and air-dried, supporting fabric finishing and refurbishment while retaining a breathable textile feel. ![Container of fluorine-free textile water-repellent treatment](https://leadercoat.com/media/p35-container-of-fluorine-free-textile-water-repellent-treatment-u081.webp) ## Surfaces & applications Textile finishing; footwear fabrics; upholstered furniture; seat covers; tablecloths and compatible leather surfaces ## Repellency for textile surfaces Source section: https://leadercoat.com/products/fluorine-free-textile-water-repellent/#detail-1 The treatment reduces wetting and contamination on compatible textiles. It is intended for applications such as footwear fabrics, upholstery, seat covers and tablecloths where spill resistance and ease of care matter. A repellent finish does not make seams, zips or an entire assembled item watertight. ![Fabric applications for fluorine-free water-repellent treatment](https://leadercoat.com/media/p35-fabric-applications-for-fluorine-free-water-repellent-treatment-u077.webp) ## Dilute the concentrate before use Source section: https://leadercoat.com/products/fluorine-free-textile-water-repellent/#detail-2 Use a product-to-purified-water ratio of 1:10. Mix evenly and trial the diluted treatment on a representative piece of fabric. Check liquid uptake, colour change, touch, drying and the required repellent effect before treating finished goods. ## Fibre and fabric selection Source section: https://leadercoat.com/products/fluorine-free-textile-water-repellent/#detail-3 Listed substrates include nylon, polyester, acetate, viscose, acrylic and polyurethane/spandex textiles, with suitable leather applications also shown. Fibre type, dyes, prior finishes and fabric construction affect uptake and performance. Evaluate the finished fabric rather than relying on fibre name alone. ## Air drying and fabric feel Source section: https://leadercoat.com/products/fluorine-free-textile-water-repellent/#detail-4 Allow the treated article to dry thoroughly with good ventilation before evaluating repellency or packing it. Breathability and the original fabric feel are important selection criteria alongside water beading. Use consistent application across the full surface to avoid uneven performance. ## Care and repeat-use testing Source section: https://leadercoat.com/products/fluorine-free-textile-water-repellent/#detail-5 The treatment is presented as wash-resistant, but durability depends on the fabric, treatment level and cleaning routine. For commercial finishing, evaluate repellency after the intended laundering or cleaning cycle. Keep concentrate sealed in a cool, dry place and use within the stated shelf life. ## Product specifications | Property | Detail | | --- | --- | | Type | Water-based, fluorine-free repellent concentrate | | Appearance | Milky-white liquid | | Dilution | 1 part product to 10 parts purified water | | Pack sizes | 100 g, 500 g, 1 kg, 5 kg and 25 kg | | Drying | Air drying | | Properties | Water, oil and stain repellency on compatible textiles | | Shelf life | 12 months in a cool, dry location | ## Application procedure 1. **Check the textile** Start with clean fabric free from residues that could interfere with treatment.
