Thread: Waterproofing a tent

I would like to put something on the nylon taffeta floor & fly on my small 1.5 man all season tent, Is there a product I can coat it with to just give it some more protection ? I know there's stuff for canvas but what about nylon ?

Phil I just used a proper silicon seam sealer on all the seams on my little Terra Nova tent (silnylon) and once or twice I have given the whole tent a quick zap with silicon spray from repco then gave it a wipe down so there was no residue, more for maintenance as it's never leaked. Has maintained the "sliperyness" of the silnylon well though, putting it back in its bag is like trying to baptize a cat!

yip can of silicon spray....

Or give it the silnylon treatment. Check out Youtube,
