Make sure you stake the tent (with the tent stakes included) in windy weather, or if you anticipate afternoon winds coming up while you are away from your campsite. Stake one corner, then each consecutive corner in a clockwise rotation.  Make sure the tent remains tight.  Always place your tent a safe distance from your campfire - unstaked tent placed upwind of the fire can blown into the fire. Tent placed downwind of the fire often showered with the tiny sparks that can burn holes into the lightweight fabric of your tent.

WASHING: 

Hand wash with a sponge, using a mild soap. Never use detergents or washing machines as they may damage the coating or seams.  Remember to use seam sealer once tent had been washed to insure waterproofing.

HOW LONG WILL A NYLON TENT LAST?

Various conditions will affect the length of service which you receive.

a. A nylon tent which is left erected all summer may last only one or two seasons, a the sun's ultra-violet rays damage the nylon.

b. Never store a tent wet or damp, as mildew may develop.  It will not harm nylon, however, mildew is unsightly and may damage other parts of the tent (i.e) zipper tapes).

c. Avoid spraying insect repellent or haor sprays, etc. on the tent fabric as they may be harmful.


REPAIR: 
For small tears use a adhesive backed rip-stop nylon patch.  We recommend Texsport Nylon Tent Repair Kit.



STORAGE: 
Tents should be stored dry and loosely folded, away from heat and water.  Keep out of reach of mice as they like to nest in tents. Never store directly on concrete, as moisture and chemicals in concrete may damage the nylon.
