Write your question here...I have a Eureka Timberline tent from 1977-it is in great shape but smells like vomit from the breakdown of the waterproofing. Can I wash this tent in the wash and use the polar proof?

Nan, Kirk The Nikwax rep here. I would agree with washing the tnt in Tech Wash. Then you may treat with te UV proof and you will be good to go.

Both of these items were intended for outerwear, fleece and layering pieces. However, I don't see why you couldn't use the Tech Wash on any nylon tent. I don't know how far the Polar Proof will get you though as it is a specific formula for fleece layers you wear. My advice would be to purchase the Tech Wash separately and also purchase the Nikwax UV proof spray on bottle for after you have washed your tent.
