Technical Details
The Epic Armoury Tarpaulin is a versatile and durable product that can be used in various ways. It is made of a heavy-duty fabric consisting of 65% cotton and 35% polyester, weighing 350g/m². The fabric has been weatherproofed with paraffin wax to enhance its durability and protect against the elements. The tarp is designed with reinforced patches in each corner and along the edges, ensuring its strength and longevity. Each patch features a triangular ring, allowing for multiple configurations and uses. For example, you can set it up as a practical awning, creating an elegant entrance to your tent. It can also be used as a connecting structure between two tents, providing a covered area in between. Raising it on four tent poles and securing it with pegs can serve as a shelter or cover over a long table in the centre of your camp. With just two tent poles and a few pins, the Epic Armoury Tarpaulin can be transformed into an improvised roadside shelter, providing temporary cover and protection. Please note that the tent poles, pegs, pins, and guy ropes are separate from the tarp and should be sourced separately. While the tarp offers great versatility, exercising caution and using it responsibly is important. The levitation spell mentioned is symbolic, as the tarp cannot fly. Use the tarp per its intended purpose and enjoy its convenience and adaptability for your camping and outdoor activities.

Maintenance
Our tents and awnings are treated to be water-repellent and anti-mold, yet mold is an age-old issue with tents, so it's essential to take preventive measures, even though we can't guarantee complete control. Here are some guidelines to prevent mold:
-
Use a Groundsheet: we recommend the use of a groundsheet under the tent to reduce the moisture rising from the ground.
-
Ensure that the tent is pitched correctly so that water easily runs off the fabric and the tent is protected from leaks and mold formation.
-
Make sure the tent is completely dry before storing it, as damp fabrics encourage mold growth.
-
If the tent isn't fully dry before storing, it can develop a musty odor and compromise water-repellent coatings.
-
Do not store the tent in damp or hot places like a basement.
-
Avoid cooking inside the tent, as this can cause mold to form on the fabric.
-
Do not wash dishes inside the tent, as dishwater is one of the main enemies of the fabric.
-
Set up the tent on a dry, clear day.
-
Take extra care in high-humidity climates to prevent mold.
-
Do not hang a kitchen rag over a bar inside the tent, as soap residues can affect the fabric.
-
Ventilate the tent, especially when you're not using it.
-
Avoid pitching the tent under trees, as bird droppings and tree debris after rain can cause mold.
-
Regular Cleaning: Encourage regular cleaning of the tent with mild soap and cool water to remove dirt and organic materials, which can promote mold growth.
-
Check for Damage: Regularly check for any signs of wear or damage. Small rips or tears can let in moisture, which can lead to mold growth.
