Tent & Gear SolarProof

The easy to use, safe, high performance waterproofing and UV blocker for all synthetic weatherproof textiles. For canvas tents use Dwights Canvas Waterproofing.

Adds Durable Water Repellency, increases fabric strength & protects against UV deterioration; one application can double the effective life of fabrics. Can be applied to wet or dry synthetic fabrics.

 

Use Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® when your gear is new or wash your tent first with Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarWash™

To most effectively benefit from the ultraviolet (UV) and Durable Water Repellent (DWR) protection of Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® it is best applied to equipment from new.

During use the equipment fabric will pick up dirt and other contaminants which stop water from beading on the fabric surface. When this occurs the DWR can be revitalised by cleaning with Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarWash.

Over time the DWR will wear off through use. Both the DWR and UV protection can be replenished by reapplication of Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof®.

Container Size and Usage.

Capacity - 500ml.

50ml of liquid recommend per 1 SQM of Fabric.

 

Being water-based, Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® is safe to apply.

 

Alternative waterproofing products are solvent-based, aerosols, or use fluorocarbons and leave a surface coating on your outdoor equipment. These products are flammable and from a health point of view it is best not to breathe in their solvent or propellant content.

Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® is a safe product to use on your outdoor equipment. It is water-based, non-flammable, contains no volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and is fluorocarbon free.

Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® has been specifically designed and optimised for outdoor equipment to provide Durable Water Repellency (DWR) and ultraviolet (UV) protection. 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 if your equipment is wet there is no need to wait for it to dry before you treat it with Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof®.

Works great

I damaged my tent’s waterproof layer when cleaning it with chemicals.

Used the tent and gear solarproof and I haven’t had any issues with water getting into the tent since.
