Why this grade

Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Fragrance allergens and respiratory sensitization, Surfactant skin or eye irritation and Microbial growth if contaminated during use on the Clorox and not on the Nikwax.
  • We flag Respiratory irritation or fume inhalation during application and PFAS in water repellency treatment on the Nikwax and not on the Clorox.
  • The Clorox is Water, fragrance, and surfactants in spray liquid where the Nikwax is wax-based waterproofing, which is most of the difference in these two grades.

Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
