The Silicone Seam Sealer is manufactured in the United States by Gear Aid<\/a> (previously known as SilNet) and is specifically designed for application on Silnylon (silicone+nylon) or silpoly (silicone+polyester) fabrics. Not all tents or tarps come factory-sealed. An example is the shelters from Six Moon Designs<\/a>. This does not mean that you will get wet in the first rain. <\/p>\n
\nA seam sealer seals the holes in the fabric created by the sewing machine needle. It also repairs punctures in the fabric. Simply apply a small amount over the hole, and it will prevent leaks \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
\nWhen to use it<\/h2>\n
\nYou will need a silicone seam sealer depending on the type of routes you take. If your adventures are in regions with constant and continuous precipitation, it makes sense to seal them, but if you are hiking in dry areas with a low chance of rain, it may not be as necessary.<\/p>\n
