scotch guard	Can't Post

I've heard of guys scotch guarding their containers. Is that something that the manufacture does? or can you buy it in a spray bottle and go to town? I have everything out of my icon due to a recent washing, and just felt like it would be a good time to stain proof for the up coming season, thanks and as always blue skies!

Sunpath use 3Ms scotchguard on the rigs before they are stitched together - had the same question and went to see them when in Z-hills and they showed me the can!

I have done this myself - to a new container before putting the AAD/canopies into it. I did my homework beforehand, talking to the rig manufacturer and Handsome Dave DeWolf. Here is my input in a few threads on the subject:
