Is it effective if sprayed on the canvas outside the tent?

I don't know, but it keeps bugs from biting me...I would think it would be effective on a tent.

I don't go camping but as soon as the mosquitoes appear after the first rain, I spray myself and my clothes before going outside, otherwise I am their buffet until winter.

I use it to spray the exterior of my house and outdoor buildings, it seems to keep things from coming indoor, also spray around the grill area.

It works best in an enclosed area. But I'm sure a few sprays would be pretty noticeable

No I would not leave it outside indefinitely. If it doesn't blow away the UV rays will damage the canopy. This tent is made for temporary shelter like craft fairs etc.

Hi I've used it on a nylon windbreaker, the outer synthetic cover of a sleeping bag and a tent out of parachute material, whatever that stuff is. had to spray it all twice to waterproof it, but no problems whatsoever. hope that helps.

I don't think so. I think it would stay a little bit sticky for several days and make a mess of your tent. Sewing a patch on would work better.

Yes, very much so. It's coating is top notch stuff. You would need a pole or two most likely though depending on your tent set up

I dont see why not, though I'm not personally an expert. Canvas seems sturdy enough to handle a little bit of spray pressure.

You have to spray in a well-ventilated area. I would not use it for clothing.

I used it outside at sporting events. It has a protective grate on it, but stuff could still melt on it. I read others have used it in tents.

I think if you were to put it on a canvas you would have to use Mod Podge to make it stay. The matte kind... It wouldn't stay by itself.

If you are using the Coleman Sundome tent, you wont have to worry about the floor because its s plastic type floor almost like a tarp. Trust me on thst cause I was in a "monsoon" my first trip out and with high winds and my tent stayed bone dry. Still, put a tarp under it. As far as the seams, there is a rainfly which protects but if you are really concerned, get a larger tarp and use that like I did for an extra rainfly. Supposedly, though, this tent wont need it but all my friends were getting tarps for their tents and told me to do the same so I did. If you still wish to seal the seams, i would contact the Coleman company directly and ask. Putting snything on it might interfere with what is already in the material.

Take it outside and hose off the majority of dirt. If it's warm out, disinfectant soap and a stiff bristle brush. If it's cold, the canvas goes in the washing machine. No ill effects yet, but I'm sure the machine is harder on it than the soap and brush.

Sure, as long as you bring the tent inside after use. It is not waterproof.

I think its for water drainage or just extra ventilation. I have been in the tent at night on the deck and havent had any issues with bugs.

I Don't believe it will harm the trees in any way just don't spray on a windy day and try not to get any material on the bark of the trees you are spraying around

I think so. I'd lay a blanket down first to protect the tent floor. It's definitely not made for outside use. It's thin nylon and wouldn't provide much protection from the elements. But for outside play during the day I think it would work.
