I have brought a couple of rugs from a lady who recently had her horse PTS. They are great rugs, both Weatherbeeta however they are FILTHY - covered in mud and are very dusty from being in storage. I'd ideally like to freshen them up and given them a reproof before putting them on my girl and was hoping to do it in the washing machine with the Nikwax rug wash and then the reproofer - has anyone had any experiences with this and what were the results like? I don't want to send them off to be done professionally as have had bad experiences with this ruining rugs previously and I don't particularly want to pay the princely sum of £20 for a re-proof but have to wash it before hand too (She doesn't reproof rugs unless they have been washed previously). I don't normally wash any of mine however these are quite foul even by my standards and to avoid my poor girl being taunted in the field for wearing gross rugs, I feel that these do need a clean! Any experiences with this?
