Using Tent & SolarProof® safely adds durable water-repellent (DWR) protection to synthetic weatherproof fabrics as well as protection against UV damage and increasing fabric strength. It gives you the most benefit when applied to new equipment with just one application potentially doubling the life of the fabric. Make sure the fabric is clean and apply - no need to wait for the fabric to be dry first. Water based and environmentally friendly.
Features
- Easy to use spray-on waterproofing and UV blocker for all synthetic tents, packs, and outdoor covers
- Adds water repellency, increases fabric strength and protects against UV deterioration
- Enhances the performance of your tent and gear and doubles their useful life
- Unlike solvent-based products, which need to be applied to dry materials, Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® can be applied to wet or dry fabrics so no need to wait if your tent is wet
- Can double the effective life of synthetic waterproof fabrics by protecting against UV damage while simultaneously providing DWR to keep rain out
- It is best applied to equipment from new to get the most effective benefit
- Water based, non-aerosol, non-flammable, contains no volatile organic compounds (VOCs), fluorocarbon free and environmentally friendly
- Revilatise fabrics by regularly cleaning dirt and other contaminants off with Nikwax Tech Wash ® and, as you notice the fabric's DWR and UV protection is decreasing, revitalise with Tent & Gear Solarproof
- Approximately 50ml required per 1m2, exact amount will depend on the condition of the fabric being treated
- To use:
- For best results always clean item(s) first. No need to dry item(s) before waterproofing.
- Protect working surface and lay clean wet item flat, or erect tent and wet
- Spray evenly to outside of fabric. Avoid backpack strap.
- Wait for 2 minutes. Remove any surplus product with a damp cloth
- Check carefully to ensure no areas have been missed
- After several minutes check for and remove surplus product with a damp cloth. Marks may appear on fabric if excess product is not wiped away. Test on a hidden area first.
- To maintain waterproofing always clean with Nikwax SolarWash. Do not use detergents.
- If your equipment is made of cotton, polycotton or canvas, make sure you use Nikwax Cotton Proof™ for best results.
