Silly question: Is there a right way up for this fabric?

Not so much a write or wrong side but they are a little different. One has a light PU coating. So preferably, if you are using two panels, try to use the same outside. It is more for looks though then function.

Great fabric, better priceI got this fabric at $5 a yard and made 3 x 12ft winter tarps with doors for my brothers and I to each have one. Here’s the special part. I spent a little more than $60 on 3 winter tarps. Think about that for a moment, realize this is wider than normal fabric, (and thus more tarp), and then buy this fabric!
There is just so much room and I don’t have to hunch over and crab walk to my hammock anymore. All thanks to the extra width this fabric has.
Fabric isn’t too difficult to work with (just take your time). This is lower stretch fabric and I skipped cat cuts. This made it very simple to just measure, mark and cut straight lines. Of course, your mileage may vary.
Cost break down:
– Fabric: (I bought two colors and have extra of each) = $145
*20 Yd: $100
*9 Yd: $45
– 300D Pack Material (Half Yard): $4
– 3/4 Inch Beastee Dee Rings: 30 (10 per tarp) = $7.50
– Gutermann Thread: 2 x spools = $7.20
– Mitten hooks (Single): 12 (4 per tarp on doors): $2.40
– 3/32 Shock Cord (25 Feet): $4.25
Not acquired from dutch:
– 3/4 Inch Grosgrain 50yd spool on amazon = $10
Total Price: $180.35 (~ $60.12 per tarp!!!)

nordish-guy –
You wrote one side is PU coated. If the other side is Sil-coated I need two different seam sealer, needn’t I? Seam Grip and Sil-Net? How can I recognize which side is PU and which is silicon for using the right seam sealer?

It will only have to coincide with the side you are seam sealing.

The website says Sil/PU, the video indicates the fabric is all Sil. Is it all sil or sil/pu?

Do you have a product that is all silicone … sil/sil? There seems to be some confusion with labeling silpoly. Sil/sil is true silpoly with zero PU.
