Seam Grip SL Silicone Tent Sealant

Most tents these days come with taped seams.  That’s fine, but overtime those seams can delaminate.  Many boutique tents do not come with taped seams, so you have to seal the tent at home before using it.  Unless you like sleeping in a puddle.  Not a cuddle puddle, just a wet, cold puddle.   Seam Grip SL Silicone Tent
