I sprayed a tent with water shedding properties and it worked great. Not saying my situation is same as yours. I'm saying in "can" work, try it.

Thx...I'd be afraid to try on a $500 cuben shelter! I'm not worried about ruining an $8.00 piece of Saran Wrap...[emoji38]just surprised it stuck to a waterproof material but assume the residue is enough to repel the ticks...thx

Why? Does it damage the material? Which manufacturer?
