My Flip-pac non waterproof "rain fly", HELP!

Tacodoc or other,

when using the Nikwax, does it have to be wet like is says? If so, did you put it in the washing machine or get it wet with a hose?

Thanks!

Mine was dry, I sprayed it directly on the fabric (liberal amounts) and then vigorously rubbed it in with a wet cotton towel/rag paying extra attention to any seams/stitching. Let it dry thoroughly before you stow it.
