Description
No one wants to sleep in a puddle. But if you own a silnylon tarp, you could end up in one—if you don’t treat the seams first. That’s because ultralight silnylon tarps aren’t typically sealed at the vendor.

I used this on my xenon sil .9 kit. I sat under it for an hour ina rain storm to read a book. Using the included brush to apply it will make uneven and goopy lines. I later discovered that using a flat edge like a popsicle stick to smear the drops, will make it smooth and flat . The edges still might be crooked but the surface will be completely smooth and it will use much less product. I used almost a full tube to seal a winter tarp with the brush. I would have used a lot less if I had used the wooden stick to spread it out. YMMV of course. I would suggest ensuring enough product gets in the seam then spreading and thinning it with the stick.
