5.0 out of 5 stars Worked great after other products failed - Happy Camper!, September 25, 2010

The short review is that this product worked great on a needy tent. I tested it in a controlled environment (my yard) and in the field with a moderate rain storm with absolute success. For a more extensive (wordy) review keep reading:

I'm an avid outdoorsman and needed to treat my tent for an upcoming adventure. I started with products that I had on hand Scotch Guard (SG) and Kiwi Camp Dry (KCD). The Scotch Guard proved to be worthless for my application and the KCD held promise under my controlled testing. I quickly discovered that it takes a lot more product than I expected to treat my whole tent so I starting running to my local big box stores to try to find KCD. I stumbled across the Sno Seal Silicone Water Guard (SWG) and reluctantly decided to try it. The results were clear. Where I had treaded with SG there was no water repellency in spite of what the label and the picture on the can stated. The KCD beaded up but over a period of 20 minutes the water started to absorb into the fabric. The areas of double treatment with KCD did much better but the water droplets still absorbed into the fabric eventually. Where I had single treated with Sno Seal Silicone Water Guard (SWG) the fabric beaded up and stayed beaded up until the sun evaporated the water droplets. I was very impressed and treated the whole tent with the (SWG). I have since field tested the tent at an elevation of over 13,000 feet and experienced a moderate rain. My previously leaky tent held out the rain. I am now on a mission to understand this product and others and to do a more extensive review for my son's website [...]. I have discovered that the market is overloaded with this kind of product (mostly at higher prices) so doing an extensive review is a bit overwhelming. One final note, I don't recommend this product for fabric that is going to get washed such as a jacket. For this application the company has a product called Water-Guard Permanent Water and Stain Repellent. I now own this product as well and hope to do a review of it and others soon. Watch for it on [...]

Very good product. Reasonably priced,fast delivery. Easy to apply.
Recommend outdoor application due to overspray and dripping.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cheap waterproofing, January 9, 2011

Not sure what everyone is doing to make this stuff not work. I owned a Jeep and used to spray this stuff on my cloth seats in case of rain. Without this spray the seats would soak up the water literally like a sponge and be wet for days. With this stuff sprayed on, the water would actually pool up on my seats for hours until I could splash it all off with my hands. Then I'd give the seat a quick wipe with a towel or my shirt sleeve and I could drive home with a dry butt.

If this stuff can waterproof a cloth car seat, something must be going wrong for the other users who rated it poorly.
