## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The main go to brand for a reason
*by D***D on 31 May 2025*

Perfect for all your gear. Easy to apply and very effective on giving your gear a boost and refresh, can get some blobs on spray but they can be wiped off or they disappear when absorb. Can get plenty of uses for money. Have done a tent and couple coats and stilla have some left. Does have bit of a smell when applying so recommend doing outside.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Four Stars
*by M***Y on 22 October 2015*

it does what it says .... we use it for the wings of a microlite to try to ensure the canvas wings dont perish from being stored damp in a cold hangar and from the intense sun in france .......as there are no holes in the wings and they haven't dropped off yet ....i think it must be a good product ........if it does air plane wings i am sure it will be fine for your canvas camping bags tents draw sheets rucksacks and maybe even shoes .......

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product doe's exactly what its designed for
*by M***K on 26 August 2021*

I would ignore the negative reviews as they seem to have misunderstood what this product is and what it's used for. If your tent is currently leaking this will not help and has the possibility of making it worse.This product is used to add an outer protective coating that isn't waterproof but is water repellant. This will cause your tents fabric to start beading water so it runs off easier. Much like when having your car interior or home sofa protected with something like Scotchgard, the water will sit on top of the fabric rather than soaking straight into it.A water repellant is no good if your tent is leaking. Your tent can leak for 2 reasons:1. (most common) Water coming through the seams of the tent. This is because they are not tightly woven like the main canopy is and over time the waterproof layer on the underside of them fails/cracks. If this is your case then you can buy a seam repair kit to solve this issue. Even the best tents have this problem over time.2. Water is coming through your main canopy. This is due to the polyurethane coating that's applied to the inside of your nylon canopy wearing away or cracking. Again you will need a specialist repair product for that.This product MIGHT help in the fact it could bead the water away from the damaged areas but it also MIGHT make it much worse if the water beads onto the damaged areas. Either way, if your tent is currently leaking this isn't the product for you.
