Hannibal 1.4 Rooftent Waterproofing seams

Hi to all

Can anyone help my wife and i as recently we got court in some heavey
british rain and the rain came in via the seam near the zip's.

We were facing down hill and the rain was looking for somewhare to go
this was a torrential rain down pore and the Hannibal behaved well.

But there must be some kind of extra waterproofing wax etc we could use.

Hope someone can help.

Regards

Hi,

Maybe try some Grangers Seamseal.

Grangers do a good line of waterproofing/sealing products in the UK available at most outdoor shops.

Through Europe we used a siltarp over our Hannibal fly (we had torrential rain in France and Spain) which helped - they are not designed for prolonged UK rain !!!

Good Luck

Cheers
