I searched thru old threads & others were reporting the same issue with that brand.

I'll post some pics of the bottle as soon as I get a chance. Maybe that's the problem.

The only Seam Sealer on Coleman's website is a urethane sealer which is the wrong stuff for silnylon.

I am sorry to hear about this, as others have said, it may have been the wrong stuff to use. I offer this as some possible help, I bought mine from Marty at WildernessLogics and have had no problems.

Weird, I've never seam sealed my WB tarps and never had leaks. We just got back from hanging in another washout weekend on the coast. I'll probably seal if/when we ever get wet. I forget the name of the stuff I used to use on tents, but it always cracked and peeled and wasn't very effective.

Here is the stuff I used.

Yep, wrong stuff for silnylon.

I actually picked it up at Walmart last year when I was sealing my water bag for my sawyer gravity filter project. It worked on the bag during home testing but I haven't even got to test it in the field.
