Wash your jacket with Nikwax Tech Wash. Then once washed, spray on a DWR coating like Nikwax TX Direct. Done.

This. I wash with tech wash then wash with tx direct. Wash in TX Direct is kinda pricy its 13 bucks a bottle and you use the whole thing when you machine wash.

Don't use the wash-in style of water proofing- no point in water proofing the inside of your jacket...
