Care and Maintenance of Your Tent

Practice
Get to know your new tent and its assembly procedure thoroughly. It’s no fun trying to put up a tent you are not familiar with on a dark, wet, and windy night.

Fire
Keep naked flames away from tent material. Never light pressure stoves inside the tent. Matches and candles should be used with extreme care.

Pegging
Always face your pegs at an angle to the ground to obtain the best grip in the soil. Do not over tighten guy ropes and when possible peg down in line with seams and tent material. Cross peg doors to reduce stress on fabric and stitching. Whenever possible tents should be guyed out for maximum stability.

Sunlight
Prolonged exposure to strong sunlight weakens certain tent material which fades and becomes brittle. This is known as degradation and affects all tents, to a degree. However, with normal and careful use, there is no reason why the tent materials should not last for many years. If long-term pitching in sunlight is avoidable, then find a pitch that will give some shade.

Cotton Tents
We recommend that cotton tents are soaked prior to use to ‘weather’ the material. On the first wetting or after a hot spell, a fine spray may be used until the fibres swell and close the weave. Cotton canvas should be kept tensioned to prevent shrinkage. Thoroughly dry and air cotton tents before storage to prevent mildew.

Storage
When not in use, tents are best stored loosely folded or opened out. Make sure the tent is dry and stored in a dry, well aired place. Never store damp, otherwise cotton will suffer mildew and weaken, whilst nylon will become stained and rot.

Seam Sealing
When seams are not sealed or if tent material starts to leak, seams and joins can be treated using sealant and re-proofing sprays. We recommend Storm Waterproofing:

Maintenance
Remove dirt and stains by light brushing or gently washing with water. Never use detergents. Rinse well and dry thoroughly before storing. Check straps, buckles, beams, and stitching. You can proof your tent, and we recommend Storm Waterproofing products.

Rain
Whenever possible avoid contact with tent material by body movement or equipment from inside the tent. This could cause water seepage through the materials by means of conduction. This is particularly true in the case of cotton tents.

Striking Tent
Remove dirt and stains by light brushing or gently washing with water. Never use detergents. Rinse well and dry thoroughly before storing. Check straps, buckles, seams, and stitching. You can proof your tent, and we recommend Storm Waterproofing products.

Identification Labels
Use the identifications labels to easily identify your kit – ideal for busy store rooms.
