My Argon tarp-Complete

[dimjim]

Sil Argon is much stretchier than 1.1 sil I have worked with. you should be able to mitigate this by using tensioner's - which do have a weight penalty, but you're still lighter than 1.1, and many people already use tensioners with 1.1.

Bostom, sorry for my ignorance, but what sort of tensioners are you referring to?

Tarp tensioners - a device that is attached to line(s) and will automatically take up the slack of the tarp material as it stretches.

And a DIY tutorial at JustJeff's that covers one way to make them.

I tested with a sprinkler in my yard, seemed fine to me in regards to water stoppage.
