Water proofing

What all do you recommend for a water proofing agent. Instead of buying all new camo especially a jacket thanks.

REI sells some spray on stuff that worked very well on an old Goretex jacket of mine.  Can't remember what it was called.

Depending on the material, we have a few different products to waterproof our gear. PM me with your specific gear and I can let you know what we use for it.

Anyone know if there is anything that will waterproof canvas, such as used in snow camo as made by Nat Gear???
