Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® 500ml

The easy to use, safe, high performance waterproofing and UV blocker for all synthetic weatherproof textiles.

Adds Durable Water Repellency, increases fabric strength & protects against UV deterioration; one application can double the effective life of fabrics. Can be applied to wet or dry synthetic fabrics.

Why exposure to UV can compromise synthetic materials...
Synthetic fabrics used for tents and rucksacks are coated with a water repellent treatment. Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light both destroys the water repellency and leads to a reduction in fabric tear strength, significantly shortening the lifespan of equipment.

The application of Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® can double the effective life of equipment by protecting against UV damage, while also providing Durable Water Repellency (DWR) to keep the rain out.

Tents and rucksacks use synthetic fabrics, such as nylon or polyester, with a thin watertight polyurethane (PU) or elastomeric coating on the inside and a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating on the outside. This combination gives great strength and water resistance, combined with light weight; ideal attributes for outdoor equipment.

Unfortunately these fabrics are vulnerable to sunlight and in two weeks of continuous exposure, can lose up to half of their strength. Additionally, the inner coating will degrade if it is left damp for long periods.

Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® protects the entire fabric, from the effects of both UV and water.

To most effectively benefit from the ultraviolet (UV) and Durable Water Repellent (DWR) protection of Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® it is best applied to equipment from new.

During use the equipment fabric will pick up dirt and other contaminants which stop water from beading on the fabric surface. When this occurs the DWR can be revitalised by cleaning with Nikwax Tech Wash®.

Over time the DWR will wear off through use. Both the DWR and UV protection can be replenished by reapplication of Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof®.

Alternative waterproofing products are solvent-based, aerosols, or use fluorocarbons and leave a surface coating on your outdoor equipment. These products are flammable and from a health point of view it is best not to breathe in their solvent or propellant content.

Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® is a safe product to use on your outdoor equipment. It is WaterBased, non-flammable, contains no volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and is fluorocarbon free.

Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® has been specifically designed and optimised for outdoor equipment to provide Durable Water Repellency (DWR) and ultraviolet (UV) protection. Unlike solvent-based products, which need to be applied to dry materials, Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® can be applied to wet or dry fabrics. So if your equipment is wet there is no need to wait for it to dry before you treat it with Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof®.

Nikwax Tent & Gear SolarProof® has been specifically formulated for synthetic outdoor equipment to provide Durable Water Repellency (DWR) and ultraviolet (UV) protection.

If your equipment is made of cotton, polycotton or canvas, make sure you use Nikwax Cotton Proof™ for best results.

Magsafe car mount for a Tesla screen that is easy to adjust and holds the phone very well
Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder, Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder
I installed this mount on my 2018 Tesla Model 3 main display and it was easy to install - just loosen the wheels on the top and side clamp, put it in place and then tighten the clamps back down. There is a ball mount on the back which tightens as well that allows you to position and angle the phone mount so you can tilt it up or down or towards the driver. You can adjust the phone on the mount to where you want it - although the bar that holds the phone will hit the clamps in two spots so there are a couple of positions that don't work due to the design, but overall you can more or less put the phone where you want and and then tilt it any which way to you. The magnet connection is very firm but the phone also detaches relatively easily. The clamps so far are holding well on the screen. I really don't have a lot of complaints - except maybe that there's a couple of positions that don't work. It works well, installs quickly and easily and seems to hold well in use. I've had no problems so ar.

Mostly reliable to use
Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder
It's nice to use in my car to separate out different needs like looking up a specific route while moving and the navigation is going somewhere. The magnet is pretty strong and haven't had any issues with that. However, if you dont put it in the corner of the screen to secure it at a right angle, the flat way to secure it in the middle of the top edge is not reliable at all. The weight of the phone and the angle of the mount makes it really easy to fall off the screen no matter how tight you secure it down. Fell at least a handful of times. Just put it at the corners and you'll be just fine.

Does not fit the Cybertruck. Will slip off due to angled backplate.
Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder, Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder
It does not fit the Cybertruck well. Due to the angled monitor back, it will slide off. Check the video of what I mean. It is not flat like the Model 3 or Ys. The mount should work fine on the Model 3 and Model Y and Newer Model S and X, but not on the Cybertruck and older vertical screen Model S and X. The Magsafe that I received must of been broken. It completely fell apart. Everytime I put on phone on it, the Magsafe will completely come off stuck to my phone.
