Borah Gear 7’x9’ Ultralight Tarp - Seam Sealing

First empty the contents of the McNett SilNet silicon seam sealer tube into a glass jar. Then mix a small amount of turpentine spirit to thin the silicone a little and mix well. You can also use some standard clear silicone instead (not coloured). The mixture should be just right so that you can paint it on; not too thick and not runny.

Apply to the tarp with a paint brush. I cut my brush to size so that it was just the right width. Don’t apply straight from the tube. It is too thick. I did this when I seam sealed my Tarptent Notch. It turned out too thick & the result is not so pretty. Also the weight addition is higher than if you thin the mixture first.

Borah Gear 7'x9' Ultralight Tarp including stuff sack not including guy lines or line locks 282 g before seam sealing // 291 g after seam sealing.

Total weight after seam sealing including stuff sack, guy lines & line locks = 329 g
