Have you looked around at those outdoor gear products that are made to restore water repellant properties of fabrics? Something like that could make your Altura useable again or at least improve it to a useable back-up to a new Gore.
FWIW.....I tried "Trek 7" twice on a jacket with no improvements.
Yes, I followed the directions.
