Look up your material and get the right stuff. If you have a Polyester/Nylon based tarp, this is the stuff for you.
If you have a Silicone/Nylon (Silnylon) Tarp, it is not. Look for a silicone based sealant.
I'll take it out this weekend (with the expectation of rain) and give it a test run.
It applied easily enough, make sure the tarp is tight as you apply it, as it needs to fill in the sewing holes in the flat-felled ridge seams. I added a second coat approx 30 min. after the first, it didn't peel up the first coat at all. If you have tie-outs on your tarp, I'd coat both sides, as these can have bigger holes than a normal center ridge seam.
The only complaint I had was the brush itself, to me it seemed a little coarse, but at a 1/2", it worked well at spreading the product on the seam. My preference would have been a finer, less stiff bristle set, but not a big deal. Taking care not to apply too much is the key, as it can be difficult to see the sealant coming out of the center hole.
When done wash the brush under cold water BEFORE it dries on the bristles. No cleanup info on the packaging. Overall a 5 star product...
So far...
UPDATE:
2 Aug 12
Tried the seam sealer and let it dry per manufacturers directions. Stored tarp for about 2 weeks before I got a chance to use it.
When I unfolded the tarp, the glued seam stuck to itself a little and peeled a small amount where it was painted on. This didn't ruin the tarp or the applied product, just thought it was noteworthy. I coated both sides of the tarp where it had tie-outs. I asked for the maker to provide them on both sides.
While it did rain heavily for approx 30 minutes, the tie-out fabric was still a litle damp, but sealing the tieouts decreased the amount of water considerably.
Tie-out tabs were damp, but not dripping as they were prior to sealing.
Product does the job well, as long as the end user applies it to a clean surface and takes care to do the job carefully.
Still a five star product in my book!

Man traeumt von solchen Firmen die das Belangen des Kunden so in den Vordergrund stellen. Nach dieser Erfahrung wuerde ich sofort wieder von Dolphin Scuba Center in Sacramento bestellen. Eine 5 als Bewertung reicht nicht aus um meine Zufriedenheit auszudruecken.
