## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will using Nikwax products in a machine wash damage my washing machine?**
A: No. Nikwax products have been tested by leading manufacturers and no harm or damage has ever been caused to washing machines or their components. Nikwax is safe for septic tanks and other non-mains drainage systems.

**Q: What exactly is wicking and why is it so important when outdoors?**

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