Tent Care
●
Zipper Maintenance:
Always have zippers unzipped when placing/removing tent
over frame to prevent too much stress on zipper.
●
Mildew:
If you have mildew on your canvas wall tent, you can spray on hydrogen
peroxide and rinse thoroughly. If that does not work, as last resort, mix 2 T of
bleach in a 1 gallon bucket of warm water. Wash only the area with mildew
●
Cleaning:
Always brush off caked on dirt or mud (let mud dry) with a soft brush.
●
Washing Tent
: Use only mild, all natural detergents. Always scrub lightly.
●
Storage:
Never store a damp or wet tent. Let it dry naturally. Your tent will get
mildewed if stored wet regardless of it being pretreated.
●
UV Rays:
Long exposure to the sun's UV rays will damage all canvas fabrics. A
fly is recommended to prevent UV damage if you set up your tent 2-3 weeks or
longer annually. A fly keeps your roof clean, helps shed snow easier, keeps
moisture out and heat in. A tent fly is a great additional weather barrier.
NOTE: A fly for the Maroon Bell Tent is under development and is currently not
available.
●
Leaking Seams:
Use a tent seam sealer to stop leaking seams or buy a fly.
●
Stoves or Lanterns:
Keep all stoves and lanterns away from canvas.
Set up Location:
Be aware of which trees emit resins and avoid setting up your wall
tent under these types of trees.
