Don't Bother Buying A Cheeper Brand. Perfect For Cotton Canvas!
by A.a.j (30 Jun 2019)
(5/5)
We own a medieval style cotton canvas bell tent (sounds random, I know). I bought and used another brand of waterproofing and then bought this smaller can of fabsil last minute as I'd missed a few spots and it was available on Prime.
It rained the first time we put up the tent and water POURED in where I used the first brand of waterproofing (which was a nightmare as we has a stall under the awning at the front!). However, where I'd sprayed the fabsil the water ran straight off and it felt dry on the inside of the tent. You could see very clearly wher I sprayed the first brand and where I sprayed the fabsil. I want straight back onto amazon and bought 2 5L tins of it.
Don't bother buying a cheaper brand, it's not worth it. Buy this.
Also bear in mind that these cans pour terribly and it tends to run all down the side of the tin so it's best to use a funnel and pour over the sink.

Excellent Waterproofing On My Audi Soft Top Convertible
by Amazon Customer (10 Jan 2019)
(5/5)
I used Fabsil to waterproof my Audi soft top convertible and it's been holding off the water really well. I wasn't sure if it was gonna hold up in frosty conditions but so far (a month into frosty weather) it's working well and when the frost melts the water just beads on the top. I used a paint brush to apply a generous layer after giving the soft top a good clean. Just make sure that the fabric is completely dry before application otherwise the product will not work well.
The only thing I didn't like is the tin can and the lid. You waste quite a bit of product while pouring it out the can as it seeps from the side. The lid/cap is flimsy, difficult to screw back on and is not completely air tight which results in droplets seeping out the side of the cap and evaporation with time.

Excellent Proofer For Car Roofs

Bought this to reproof convertible car roof - works much better than Renovo, which is water based.
Fabsil is solvent based so is easier to apply, dries faster and lasts longer before requiring re-application/

To Coin A Phrase.....
by Pete G. (25 May 2017)
(5/5)
It does what it said on the tin. I used this on my wife's soft top car. It brushes on really easy and the the following morning I went out and sprayed water on in the roof and the water literally danced off. Not sure how long it will stay this water replenant but initial impression is very good. I also brushed on to one of my older water proof jackets and had the same effect with no colour problems.

by Sebastian (25 Aug 2015)

We used it on our 4 person tent to make it waterproof. Despite heavy rain (6 times) and thunderstorm, the tent survived dry at the inside. Other tents were soaked.
The quickest way to waterproof tent was to assemble it in the garden, and than spray it on the outside on the whole surface.
Also did the same on waterproof jackets.
We ordered 2.5l, which arrived as a metal can. Quick delivery as we ordered Prime delivery.
Unfortunately, this is now pretty much gone so we need to ordered another 2.5l to clean the tent again before folding in to the box until next time.

Both Horses Bone Dry So Am Very Pleased With This Product As It Saved A Bit On ...
by Melly (13 Jul 2015)
(5/5)
The product arrived promptly and was well packaged.you have the option of painting or spraying the product on to fabric. We chose spray option as we were reproofing Horse turn out rugs. We just transferred some of the liquid into a pourable container then into a spray bottle. We did 2 x 6"3 heavy turnout rugs with necks and 2 lightweight turn out rugs without. There was still a little left so we reproofed canvas shoes. We turned Horses out today in their lightweight rugs in persistent rain and hoped they would stay dry for riding later. They did. Both Horses bone dry so am very pleased with this product as it saved a bit on the spray cans or paying to have them done. Will buy some more soon.

Sealed The Convertible Roof On My Z3!!
by Andyamn (15 Dec 2014)
(5/5)
Had a leak in the roof of my BMW Z3, half a litre of this has taken care of it!! Only given it one coating (although was more generous around the area with the drip) & it's keeping the water out!! Moderate amounts of rain bead on the roof, heavy heavy rain does appear to soak in, but isn't making it through!! The car is exposed to the elements, as I don't garage or cover it, two months down the line & all is well!!
The liquid is actually clear, the "black" refers to the level of protection it offers, they do a "gold" as well which is apparently more geared towards convertible roofs, but I wasn't aware of it til I'd bought this!! No matter as it's doing the job!!!

Canvas Tent Proofer.
by Tracey J (13 Sep 2014)
(5/5)
We left an email with the company and they're response was excellent . A 2.5litre can of this product covered our large canvas tent. It was sprayed on ,rather than painted on. It was applied on a sunny day and dried quickly ,however it is very smelly and so far the smell has continued to linger for just over a week now. If you have a garage or outdoor shed to store it in, it would be idea,so as to give your tent some air. Unfortunately we have to store ours in the attic.
It was recommend to us and did the job well and we can also recommend this product for proofing canvas tents.

I'm Well Satified
by Colin J (22 Jul 2013)
(5/5)
It did the job quite well on my gazebo, which is some 7 or 8 years old. It was a large area & therefore a bit difficult to do a perfect job. I'm going to give it a 2nd coat: this time perhaps with a roller & with the fabric insitu on its' frame because where I laid it out on a garden table to treat the centre section there a some very minor leaks on the seams where the fabric touched the table. I'd recommend this proofer as it's easy to apply but would suggest that maybe two coats might be a better option especially on big areas & if the fabric is old like mine.

For three years now. The canopy has not discoloured and remained entirely waterproof. The acrylic still breaths so no mould or damp problems. Two complete applications at the start of the season.

Used this to waterproof a nylon parachute to use as a tent awning (not easy!). Fabsil did the job very well, even when the awning filled up with rain in big pools, it held the water tight for long enough not to be a problem, I plan to get some more to treat my whole tent before this year's trip now.

Well that done the trick on my BMW Z3 Softtop.
No more 2" of water in the footwells and battery compatment.
2 coats of this stuff and the water tends to either bead straight off or
just sit there and run off as I drive off.
Well pleased with this product, so I can reconmend this to anyone who was
thinking off using it on their own.

very good waterproofer. I have a medium sized tent (6 man) that I bought from Asda that has always been a little damp when it rains. it does not leak as such but the inner skin gets very damp, and I would not like to be caiught in a very heavy prolonged down pour of rain in it. So I was going to replace it, but it is very easy to put up by my self and is ideal for weekends away. So I decided to give reproofing it a go and see how it worked. the tin says to brush on the water proofing. although this is the most economical way of doing it I used a pump up garden sprayer (£9.99 from B&Q for two off 1 litre sprayers) and did it that way. Once a section of the tent had been fully covered i used a wall paper pasting brush to rub it into the fabric of the tent. after one coat there was a significant iprovement to the water proofing of the tent and the nylon fabric felt firmer and almost thicker. There is enough for two coats in the 2.5 litres tin so I gave it a second coat. the tent has a new lease of life, in fact its water tightness is far better than when it was new. its water tightness is as good as my big tent which has a water proofing hydrostatic head of double that of my medium sized one. I am going to buy another couple of tins to do my big tent. I can thourouly recomend it. a must have for all serious campers.

AFTER LAST CAMPING TRIP MY BIVVY / TENT WAS LETTING IN WATER AT SEAMS AND FABRICK WAS HOLDING WATER.THE TENT IS 4 YEARS OLD AND HAD BEEN WELL LOOKED AFTER.I BOUGHT A TIN OF FASIL 2.5L AND PAINTED TENT TWICE WITH HEAVY COATING THEN LET IT DRY AS PER INSTRUCTIONS.I THEN HIT THE TENT WITH HOSE AND ON FIRST INPRESIONS IT SEEMS TO BE DOING THE JOB THE WATER IS RUNNING OF IN BEADS I HAVE NOT BEEN OUT YET IN THE FINE SCOTTISH WEATHER TO TRY IT OUT YET BUT FIRST IMPRESSIONS LOOK GOOD. MY ONLY THING I AM WARY OFF IT SAYS ON THE INSTUCTIONS ITS NOT FOR TENTS WITH TAPED SEAMS WHEN MOST MODERN TENTS HAVE TAPED SEAMS GUESS I WILL FIND OUT SOON ENOUGH

I've only used it the once so far but pleased with it, the water rests on top now instead of looking as if it's soaking in
