I have an Ozark Trail 10 Person Modified Dome Tent. Just purchased it brand new the other day. I'm wanting to put seam sealant on each of the seams to make sure it doesn't leak when I use it as I've had a new tent before which leaked the first time I camped in it. Would it be alright if I just laid the tent flat on the ground to be able to seal the top part of it as I know I wouldn't be able to reach that area if I set my tent up ? Thank you to whomever may answer my questions. 👍
@@seekoutsidegear I was able to hang it from my basement rafters at chest level and seal the top half of the tent. Then I let the seal cure overnight and raised up the tent to do the next third. I set it up outside today seal do the last part!
@@seekoutsidegear will it void the warranty? I am waiting for my courthouse to ship and was reading up on methods to seam sealing and was just curious?
Thanks for sharing your information about tent sealer . Will tell my kids about it they go camping .
Have fun!

Yea
How should I seam seal my new Courthouse tent? Similar to this video? Or should I set it up to seal it?
We would recommend setting it up, although there will be spots like the top ridegline, taking it down will be your best bet for the upper portions

do you recommend mixing with mineral sprits for deeper thread penetration??
A lot of people do that. In our opinion it isn't worth the trouble.

Do you seam seal the inside and outside….. Or just the outside?
Just the outside is recommended
@@seekoutsidegear thanks
@@seekoutsidegear oh wow...glad I just saw that. Thought it was both outside and in.
