[QUOTE="Ag Man, post: 16207, member: 113"] I've never heard of that. Even if it was the case, once your swag or tent has lost it's water resistance but is still in good condition, would you prefer to get wet & keep your canvas in good condition or would you apply a water proofing product so you can continue using the swag/tent & stay dry? I pick the later. Most new canvas products have been factory treated with some product to help it's water resistance. I would only treat the canvas once it's showing signs of losing it's water resistance or gets dry/worn patches. If you use a reputable product & follow the instructions then you shouldn't have any problems. [/QUOTE]
