So, I'm sitting in my turkey blind, and it's raining. It's probably my oldest blind I have....and the roof is leaking.

What can I put on it to waterproof it again?

They used to make "Scotch Guard" (but, I think they outlawed that stuff)

I use "Camp Dry", I think it's called. Spray it on my gloves, tents, boots....it works, and not spendy. Think Wally World has it, and a lot of other places.  Yup, looks like they do....it works for me. They still make Scotchgard too, I have a can of that.

That Kiwi Camp Dry is good stuff. I use it on my non-leather, canvas type boots for water proofing. works great. We use that Flex-Seal in a can at work for sealing up small holes in the rubber membrane on our roofs. That seems to work for that also. Good luck.

They were pretty active this morning, but in large groups. I couldn't pull a Tom out of the herd because he didn't want to leave his girlfriends.

Thanks for the suggestions guys.... I stopped by Wally World and got some of that camp dry stuff while I was in town getting the differential oil. I'll spray it on tomorrow after the morning hunt.  :happy1:
