I'm working on my Bum Genius 4.0's.... used them for three years on my boy, and now hoping to use them again. I took the covers and turned them inside out, like you did in your pictures, and sprayed on the colored side of the inside. I'm worried about getting the spray on the white part, which needs to wick moisture by definition. Is that why you use the cardboard insert? Thanks so much!

Are they leaking through the legs? Loose elastic? It is hard, but there comes a time when even cloth diapers just have to be thrown out.

I bought the spray and went immediately to work on my own, this time trying on Thirstiest covers. To my confusion the covers were still leaking. I tried several more times, each time making sure to follow your instructions to the letter. Unfortunately I still have leaky covers. Am I missing something and have you had better success with a different method?

In my experience, ...How long does the spray last? <br />In my experience, the waterproofing will last through the rest of the life of the diaper. Even cloth diapers need to be thrown out eventually. I will replace the elastic once, and it seems when the elastic wears out a second time, it always seems like the material on the casing starts getting holes in it. At that point, I throw them out. I have never had to use the waterproof spray a second time. My diapers typically last through 2 children this way.

Also,how often do you wash your diapers? We've had a terrible time with diaper rash infections (in spite of frequent changes,and the only thing keeping them at bay was a small amount of bleach,long soak and the sanitize dryer cycle. I realize this has affected the PUL though...was just curious how long I should plan on the spray lasting before a repurchase. :)<br />Modern-Day Mahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14023238810727128564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6113159130315388122.post-3592609158658751412012-06-13T01:45:27.371-04:002012-06-13T01:45:27.371-04:00This is an awesome idea although the chemicals in ...This is an awesome idea although the chemicals in the waterproofing spray concern me. Commercial PUL and TPU applications have been proven safe for babies over many years. While I love the resourcefulness and frugality of this post, I would be remiss if I didn't at least ask if there is a chance the chemicals in the spray could possibly get into the baby through the skin even after washing. Have you gotten any feedback from others who have tried it?Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15017005245025079676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6113159130315388122.post-81574994522779070272012-05-21T11:17:28.521-04:002012-05-21T11:17:28.521-04:00Gretchen - I have not tried it with PUL covers... ...Gretchen - I have not tried it with PUL covers... with my Thirsties, the PUL far outlasted the elastic and the velcro. :) I would think it would work just as well though.
