    Is this okay? Crease in new tarp

    Got a new tarp and looks like the material was creased event down both sides. I have an email in to the maker but wondered if anyone has seen this before. It worked out and didn't seem to have defective material under it. Just never seen this before.

    If that's the seam. Could be the seam sealer stuck to the edges of the fabric.

    No seam. It's a side. I thought it was a seam through the side panel at first myself.

    Pitching it might stretch it out.

    It did j just never seen that before. Was worried that line portion may not have a good coating but appears and felt fine except for the visual line.

    Probably using material that was stored folded instead of on a roll.

    What's the material? My winter tarp is a 70d PU coated fabric and it sticks to itself on the coated side when folded and stored. Looks a lot like your photo when I pull it back out.

    It's 30D 2000mm NeverMist™ Silnylon

    I suspect your right.
