Concentrated Tent & Gear Solar Proof Waterproofing

Good product

Très efficace. je vaporise ma tente au début de l'été et j'ai la paix. on a eu 100 mm de pluie en une nuit et pas une goutte,

Wer sich dieses Produkt und kein Spray kauft, hat vermutlich so wie wir ein großes Zelt.Es ist nicht leicht es gründlich überall aufzutragen und dann mit dem Lappen einzuarbeiten (ein Silikonbesen hilft), aber es ist die Arbeit eindeutig wert! Wir haben damit inzwischen mehrere Zelte bearbeitet und wo es zuvor noch Stellen gab, die bei Regen sich vollgesogen haben, perlt danach wieder alles wunderbar ab!

I bought a tent to go backpacking with, the very first night out a downpouring rainstorm hit me, the darn tent leaked like crazy, the water passed through the rainfly and poured into the tent. I contacted the tent maker and they sent be a new fly and told me to use Nikwax Tent & Gear, Tent & Gear Solarproof on the fly, and Gear Aid Seam Sure Water-Based Seam Sealer on the seams.I applied two coats of the seam sealant, after which I applied two coats of the Nikwax. I felt the rainfly and couldn't tell if any coating was on it, so I put 3 more coats on it, then it took on a waxy type of feel to it. I also applied both on the main body of the tent.About 3 months later during one of my outings it downed poured again with hard winds...not a single drop got into the tent!At the beginning of every season I reply the Nikwax but I only put on two coats because it still has that waxy feeling before I put on the fresh coats; I haven't noticed any degradation of the seam sealer which could be due to the Nikwax over top of it? I don't know, but so far it's holding up.Some readers might think that putting on 5 coats initially was an extreme overkill, perhaps, but I do know this, I no longer get wet, and none of my stuff gets wet, and for me that was more than worth it.Do I recommend this stuff? Oh yeah!

veramente soddisfatto
