Waterproofing Spray

This is really the only water sealant spray for all of our fabrics we ever use. We use it on absolutely everything. We live high up in the Colorado Rocky Mountains by Vail. Living here, we have long winters, & get a lot of snow. We stay very active outdoors, in every season, all year long. With lots of playing in the snow & rain! Along with being very active outdoors in all of the seasons here. No matter the weather or season, we need to stay dry! So we need to make sure that our gear stays dry, warm, & works as it’s supposed to. So that we can enjoy our outdoor adventures. We use this Water Sealant for almost everything. Just to make sure that we keep ourselves and all of our kiddos dry & warm! We’ve never have had any problems, issues, stains, or funky smells afterwards. When wearing or using whatever we’ve used the product on. The product does exactly as it states. It helps to block & keep any water out of any of your fabrics you need sealed! We use it on our coats, hats, gloves, snow pants, on our shoes, & everything else in between. I’m sure you could use it on just about any fabric! Along with multiple various other items & materials. Especially all the items & materials that it states you can use it on, directly stated on the can or online. Its super easy to use. You just spray it directly on the fabric you are needing to seal, let it dry, & that’s it. We just wash and dry anything that can be washed first before using the spray. Then just make sure you give whatever you are spraying it on, a good overall coating in a well ventilated area. It dries quickly, absorbs, doesn’t smell, and works great! We usually put ours in a warm, well heated area. (We usually use our hot water heater & utility room. As its always nice and toasty in there and helps to dry everything completely & super fast!) But we have also hung things outside during the summer to dry, as well! However you can hang them really anywhere to dry! It’s just faster in the specific places like I stated above. You honestly can’t beat the price of it! With the amount you get for the price. How long it lasts & how many things you can use it on with that amount. Especially compared to the other various water sealants. That have way more steps to them, ones that may cause stains, can damage or can only be used on certain fabrics & materials. Or ones that can only seal a few items with the amount bought, so you’ll need to buy more, or ones that requires several steps to complete! We buy this product off of Amazon and Walmart. As you can sometimes get a bigger size and cheaper price on or at Walmart. But just check, because it all just depends. However it’s still a great price and purchase on Amazon as well! It all just varies. So just make sure to check before buying. Just to save you some money & get bigger sizes of it for your money!

Been through 1 season and tent is water proof.

When it comes to protecting my gear, especially anything that might face the wrath of the outdoors, I tend to lean towards robust solutions. That's where Atsko Silicone Water-Guard comes in. I've used this spray for everything from my camping equipment and military-grade "Gore-tex" gear to some of my nicer shoes and boots, particularly those made of porous materials that are prone to staining when out and about. This spray truly creates a strong silicone barrier, and I've found it makes less protected materials far more appropriate for even a spirited rainfall. It's important to remember that this isn't a waterproofing spray in the absolute sense, but you'll certainly be glad you used it when you encounter damp conditions. It genuinely boosts the water resistance of your items, keeping them drier and cleaner. One critical piece of advice, though: this stuff has a potent odor, so make sure you spray it outdoors to prevent any respiratory issues. Proper ventilation is key for your safety. But once applied and dried, you're left with a reliable layer of protection that stands up to the elements, extending the life and pristine condition of your cherished items.

This silicone spray is easy to apply, and it has a good reputation. It should not be applied too thick if you follow its directions, just enough to make the appearance of the item being treated as evenly wet afterwards.

THIS! I use on my horse blankets to waterproof & it works great! Easy to apply & drys quick

I’ve heard about “atsko” before and decided to give this stuff a try. I sprayed it onto my jackets, shoes, gloves, hats, and umbrella. Some of you may be wondering, “why an umbrella?” Well, when used on an umbrella the rain will slide right off and there is less worry about bringing a wet umbrella into the home or office. Just a quick shake and the umbrella is virtually dry. I first bought this spray nearly a year ago and my first item tested was a wind breaker jacket that I decided to also make into a rain jacket. This stuff works best when used sparingly and with even coverage. Soaking the fabric with the spray is just unnecessary overkill and a bit of a waste. One can lasted me about 10 pairs of shoes, an umbrella, and two and a half jackets. Wear gloves when spraying and definitely spray outdoors and give at least a couple days to fully dry and rid of the chemical smell. And also to reduce waste, place another garment that you intend to spray beneath you while you work so as to catch the excess overspray. I tried this method and I found that much of the overspray had covered about half of a third jacket. Once dry this stuff is great. I gauge the “dryness” with whether or not I can still smell the spray. After just one application, my windbreaker/rainjacket hasn’t failed me after a Pacific Northwest Fall through Spring rainy season. And for those that know about the Pacific Northwest, rain can be a daily thing during much of the year. For the price vs performance ratio, this product is fantastic. I will buy a few more bottles just to respray heavily worn jackets, but I really don’t think that I need to.

Wish I had taken pics, but I forgot, so you’ll just have to trust me! I bought this product for a couple of reasons: 1) The advertised use of waterproofing my trail running shoes from dew, light rain, small puddle splashes, etc. 2) For the inevitable event of super-soaked, ankle deep, muddy trails where no spray will ever keep my feet from getting wet, BUT it will make my shoes super easy to clean afterwards. I treated my brand new/never worn shoes, then ran about 20 miles on some VERY sloppy trails with multiple water crossings. Of course, my feet got wet, but a quick pass through a creek got them pretty darn clean. Afterwards, I cleaned them as I usually do with warm water and a nylon scrub brush. The fabric parts looked like new! No staining or discoloration from imbedded mud/clay and it was super quick and easy. After cleaning and drying I did decide to treat them a second time since the first time I forgot to treat my laces (which were like wicks drawing water to my socks). They’re curing now, but I can only imagine another treatment improving those properties even more/deeper into the fabric. I think it’s also worth noting that it did not make my shoes hold water as I watched water squish from inside (untreated side) of the treated areas, so it is in fact “breathable” as advertised. Super happy with the product and I’ll definitely buy more as I continue to treat other gear.

Works adequate but way too expensive on Amazon.
