          using it for, and what your comfort level is.

Care for your Tent

 

  • Do not wash the tent with hard detergents in a washing machine as this may damage the seams or the coating.
  • The best way to clean up the tent is that one can set it up and wipe it down with a sponge and mild detergent or hand-wash it in cold water.
  •  
  • When cleaning the entire tent, wash it with cold water. Leave stubborn stains in place, and dust them with cornstarch or talcum powder to avoid its transfer to other parts of the tent in storage.
  • Dry your tent by pitching it in the shade or by line drying only, machine dry is not recommended
