Well I'm sure this is a complete newbie question but here goes. We took the ntu pop up out this past weekend and it rained almost all weekend. We have a 90 coleman with the evolution fabric. I have washed it with woolite then sprayed the HD Scotchgaurd on it. I did not seam seal it. While sleeping DW pillow and blanket got soaked. She was up against the tenting. Is this material like a nylon tent, if stuff is against it water will seep in or do I need to do more waterproofing. Never did see any drips or anything like that.
Thanks,
Eric

What you may have been experiencing is condensation. It's very common in PU's. Try leaving a window open a crack and/or PU Gizmos. :D

I don't think it was condensation, it was definatley too wet for that. I think I will try more scotchgaurd and try seam sealer. But I am going to invest in a set of gizmos I'm sure they will be handy in Illinois summer.
Yes, the tenting is basically the same as a tent. If it's raining you want to avoid touching the canvas as it can cause water to seep through.
