Use a brush to rub nikwax Tech wash in a 1:4 ratio with water on stubborn<br />
stains. Follow up with nikwax Tent & gear Solarproof waterproofing,<br />
applying generously to the area cleaned.<br />
• When on the road, repair tears in the tent wall with repair tape and seal<br />
from the inside with a PU or silicon seam sealer. The seam should however<br />
be correctly repaired as soon as possible in order to prevent further<br />
tearing. Please contact your retailer to do this.<br />
• Tent pole shock cords can be retightened if necessary (elasticity can wear<br />
out in very cold conditions or due to aging). To do this first remove the end<br />
cap and then untie the knot in the cord. Retie the knot further up the cord<br />
and replace the cap.<br />

Depending on tent models, VAUDE tents feature the following:<br />
fEaTUrES:<br />
Siliconized:<br />
• Increases tent life by 20% - a triple coating reflects damaging UV radiation<br />
to a much greater degree than standard treatments.<br />
• 8-times greater tear resistance – siliconized fabrics attain a tear resistance<br />
of 8-11 kg compared to 1.3 kg of PU coated fabrics.<br />
• Excellent water beading properties – water simply beads on the surface.<br />
• Retensioning – the nylon carrier material swells up when damp or wet.<br />
The tent needs to be retensed if rain/snow initiate.<br />
• Sealing – siliconized materials cannot be factory seam sealed (exception:<br />
VAUDE Silicon Seam Seal). When camping in extremely rainy conditions<br />
we recommend sealing all seams by hand with a silicon seam sealer.<br />
fly:<br />
Tear-resistant 40D polyamide ripstop 240T Si/Si;<br />
waterproof to 3,000 mm.<br />
• High resistance to tearing due to tensile polyamide fabric embedded with<br />
reinforcing fibres.<br />
• Triple silicon coating to the outer and inner surfaces for maximum tearresistance<br />
and water run off, as well as increased UV-resistance.<br />
