FAQs

What does 'cut size' mean for the tarpaulin?

The 'cut size' refers to the dimensions of the material before any hemming or finishing processes. The actual finished size of the tarpaulin may be slightly smaller, typically by +/- 10%.

How often should I check the tarp for damage?

It is recommended to inspect the tarp before each use, especially after periods of strong weather or prolonged storage, to ensure its integrity and effectiveness.

Can this tarp be used as a permanent cover?

While durable for regular use, this tarp is primarily designed for temporary or seasonal protection. Prolonged exposure to harsh elements without inspection may reduce its lifespan.

What is the best way to secure the tarp in high winds?

Ensure all eyelets are used and secured to stable anchor points with adequate tension. Use strong ropes or bungees and consider adding extra tie-down points if necessary. Avoid letting the tarp flap excessively.

Is this tarp suitable for covering food or livestock?

This tarp is intended for general-purpose protection against weather and dust. It is not specifically rated or manufactured for direct contact with food or livestock.

How do I store the tarpaulin when not in use?

Clean and ensure the tarp is completely dry. Fold it compactly and store it in a cool, dry place, preferably in its original packaging or a breathable bag, away from direct sunlight and pests.

Troubleshooting

Tarp is not completely waterproof after a short period.

Inspect the tarp for any punctures or tears. Ensure all seams and eyelets are intact. For persistent issues, consider using a seam sealer or replacing the tarp.

Eyelets are pulling away from the material.

Reduce the tension applied to the eyelets. Avoid over-tightening ropes or straps. If the damage is significant, reinforce the area with a patch or consider a different securing method.

Mould or mildew growth on the tarp.

Clean the tarp thoroughly with a mild detergent and water. Ensure the tarp is completely dry before storing it in a well-ventilated area.

Tarp tears easily.

Check for UV damage, which can degrade the material over time. Avoid dragging the tarp across rough surfaces. Ensure proper tensioning to avoid stress points.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent waterproof protection for stored items.
  • Durable construction with UV and tear resistance for extended life.
  • Easy to secure tightly due to reinforced aluminium eyelets.
  • Lightweight and portable for convenient use and storage.
  • Cost-effective due to reusability and ease of cleaning.

Cons

  • Finished size may vary by up to 10% from the cut size.
  • May not be suitable for extreme, prolonged weather exposure without additional support.
  • The blue color might be less discreet in natural settings compared to camouflage options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unfold the tarpaulin and position it over the area or item requiring protection. Utilize the reinforced aluminium eyelets, spaced approximately 1 meter apart, to secure the tarp. Use ropes, cords, or bungee straps to fasten it tightly to a stable anchor point, ensuring it is taut to prevent water pooling or wind damage.

Compatibility: This tarp is compatible with most standard ropes, cords, and bungee systems. It is suitable for covering a wide range of items, including garden furniture, vehicles, log piles, camping equipment, and building materials.

Care: To clean the tarpaulin, use a damp cloth or a soft brush with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before storing. Ensure the tarp is dry before folding to prevent mould or mildew growth. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
