Today I explain the differences between Fabsil and Fabsil Gold, which you should choose in which situation, and why? Fabsil (both versions) are available here:
Looks great and well done on a straight forward to the point video my man, earned a sub for that keep up the good work sir. I found this channel looking for products to apply DWR to tactical outer wear for work, Fabsil seems to be an excellent choice.
Thanks. So many manufacturers of new and modern tents these days tell you not to seam seal or waterproof your tent. It just doesn’t ned it. Big Agnes comes to mind. I think I’ll do mine, just in case?
Great job, haven’t seen you post any new videos in a long time, hopefully you haven’t given up? Have you still got the wild track too? Amazing truck 👍🏻😊
Dave said he's not making any more content for the foreseeable future. Filming and editing TH-cam was taking too much time away from the family and also he was dealing with a lot of trolls.
@@DetailingandtheBeast I was thinking of applying the gold first for the better waterproofing then the standard on the second coat for the uv protection. Mixing them first would thin out the uv protection, maybe? I don’t know.
I have a collection of outdoor inflatables for holidays, and over time, the coating on the nylon fabric comes off. This is an issue, because that coating is what keeps the air inside. If I use this product, will it make my fabric non breathable again?
I don't think so. Tents need to "breathe" and I'm sure that this allows that to continue. I'd check with the manufacturer, but my guess is it isn't the product for you.
how much did you use for the first coat? did you use near a litre? i just brought the 5 litre tub and then watched this and it looks like you only have the 1 litre tub
Don't get your hopes up Martin, this was an "archive" / "in the locker" that hadn't yet been released. I'm not making any further content for the foreseeable future. 👍
I'm taking some time out. Creating videos was taking its toll on me (dealing with the trolls) and family life (spending far too mich time away from them creating and editing). I'm attempting to address the balance.
Thank you! Just about to start fabsil proofing my monster tent. Your video is a great help.
I may be some time... Volunteers welcome.
Well explained, I prefer this style of no nonsense vlog, Thank You

Excellent video. Just what I needed.
Great job, use to use Fabsil on my tents back in the day 👍🏻

Great, useful information and video as ever 👍
Really helpful thank you, and others say, straight to the point.. thanks
Very helpful indeed,thank you... 👍
Could you use a garden pressure sprayer to do this?
Can you use it on an old and leaking canvas tent?
Could you do a single coat of each one. Making the tent a summer and winter tent. Would the liquids mix together
Can you use both together or one after the other?
Thats something I havent done to any of my tents which i should do as we normally do camping from April - October.
Ay! A stokie! Great video duck 👍 😊
Cheers me dears
Is fabsil gold okay on goretex garments ?
Would that work for a bike trailer
Mix them both and slather, got it :-D

Hi, thanks for the advice. What’s the coverage? I assume you’re using a 1L tin? Was this enough?
Just about got the two coats out of this tin. First coat is way more usage than the second
A coat of both to get the best of both? A first coat of gold then a second coat of standard?
I had a similar thought, but what would happen if you mixed them in a tin and applied that? Best of both?

@@DetailingandtheBeastshoot. Alright thanks
Don't need to search anymore..... off I go to do mine!
how much did you use for the first coat? did you use near a litre?
i just brought the 5 litre tub and then watched this and it looks like you only have the 1 litre tub
About 650ml in first coat. 350ml in second. 👍

@@DetailingandtheBeast Oh ok Dave. Take care mate, spend some quality time with the family & I'll keep my fingers crossed.
What has happened to the videos lately? I used to enjoy watching them. Have I missed something?
I'm taking some time out. Creating videos was taking its toll on me (dealing with the trolls) and family life (spending far too mich time away from them creating and editing).
I'm attempting to address the balance.
So only gold is fully waterproof? Why would they sell one that isn't
Both are crap. I bought 4 litres , 2 coats and canvas leaked badly
WoW great video I’m doing an OutWell Tent Soon Can’t Wait In Need Of Some TLC 🏕️
