OVERVIEW:
Our best selling DST Tarp now available in 20D 1.1 Silpoly in Foliage color. This product is on pre-sale and will ship in 4 to 5 weeks.
Silpoly Advantages: Silpoly offers several advantages, particularly in the DST configuration, where it saves approximately three ounces compared to our 6.6 Nylon DST Tarp. It also provides lower moisture adsorption, experiences less sag when wet, and maintains slightly better UV resistance.
Silpoly Disadvantages: One of the disadvantages of Silpoly is also its reduced stretch, which demands more precise pitching, especially in uneven terrain. Sil-Poly also has lower tear and puncture resistance comparatively to our 6.6 Nylon, which may shorten the products usable lifespan.
20D Silpoly is ideal for 3 season use in smaller shelters. For harsh weather environments, we recommend our 30D Cordura spec 6.6 Nylon DST.

SEAM SEALING:

- The easy way to seal is to run a thin bead of sealant along the seam, then press it in with a finger, wiping the excess on a paper towel.
- Alternatively, you can use an acid brush from a hardware store to spread the sealant.
