After my first ice climb of the season yesterday - I had to stop b/c my "dry" rope was soaked and frozen. I'm wondering if anyone knows of an aftermarket product that can be applied to climbing ropes to re-waterproof them??? Thanks!

I think Nikwax makes a waterproofing for ropes, check them out. I think the bottle is like 30 bucks though.
