Product Information

Full details

This SolaDirect white tarpaulin is designed for everyday outdoor and DIY use, offering versatile waterproof protection for home, garden, leisure, and trade tasks. Its key benefit is robust, year-round weather resistance thanks to UV and mould-resistant polyethylene. A potential caveat is that the finished size may vary by approximately 10% due to reinforced hems. This durable 90gsm PE cover includes reinforced edges and aluminium eyelets for secure fixing, along with a 10m bungee rope for immediate use.

Does the finished size match the cut size?

No, the finished size may vary by approximately 10% due to the reinforced hems.

What is the bungee rope for?

The included 10m bungee rope is provided for secure tie-down of the tarpaulin to objects or anchor points.

Can this tarpaulin be used in all weather conditions?

Yes, it is designed for year-round use and is UV and mould resistant, offering protection in most weather conditions.

Troubleshooting

Tarpaulin not providing adequate coverage

Verify that the correct size tarpaulin is being used for the item being covered. Ensure it is stretched taut and secured properly at all available eyelets.

Water pooling on the surface

Ensure the tarpaulin is angled or tensioned to allow water to run off. Avoid creating low spots where water can collect.

Eyelets pulling through the material

Do not overtighten ropes or straps directly on a single eyelet. Distribute the tension across multiple eyelets and use appropriate securing methods. Avoid applying excessive force.

Material feels stiff or brittle

This may indicate prolonged exposure to extreme cold or UV. Store indoors when not in use and inspect for damage. Allow the material to warm up in milder temperatures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unroll the tarpaulin and identify the reinforced edges. Use the aluminium eyelets, spaced approximately every 1 metre, to secure the cover. The included 10m bungee rope can be threaded through the eyelets and attached to anchor points. For optimal security, use sturdy rope, bungee cords, or tie-down straps through multiple eyelets. Ensure the surface beneath the tarp is free of sharp objects to prevent damage.

Compatibility: This tarpaulin is designed for general outdoor use and can be secured to a variety of structures, vehicles, or objects. It is compatible with standard ropes, bungee cords, and tie-down systems.

Care: Clean the tarpaulin with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the material or its protective coatings. Store the tarpaulin clean and dry when not in use to prolong its lifespan. Ensure it is completely dry before folding to prevent mould growth.
